This community is to find that game you can't remember. Like it's on the tip of your tongue.

This community is mainly for finding a specific game title. If you are looking for game suggestions, !videogamesuggestions@lemmy.zip is the place to be.

If you want to post, use this syntax: [Platform][Estimated Year] A short description of the game.
Example:
[NES][1980]A man jumping on mushrooms

You can add a longer description in the Body. Preferably according to the template in the rules.

This syntax and our template further down makes it easier to find your game, so please use it.

If your game is found, change the title by adding [Solved] in front of the title, and the game name. For example:
[Solved][NES][1980s] Super Mario Bros.
If you're not sure about any of the details you can add [Unknown] instead.

Rules:

One game per post
Mark your post if it's solved according to the above syntax
Try using this template when posting:

Edit: Test for autoreply immediatly worked. The regex reply trigger for "solved" needed some work. Working now.

This message was probably triggered because you said something that this bot thinks is close to saying it's solved.

If it is, please change the title by adding [Solved] in front of the title, and the game name.

For example:
[Solved][NES][1980s] Super Mario Bros.
