looking for two really old games [=Simtower+ ?]

Post by michcio »

hi!
I have been looking for two really old games for a long time now... I have been playing this two games when I was in the age of maybe 7 years...

the first one can be compered to todays "Sims" there was a big 2D house (already built) where you had to ...hum I don't really remember but kind of help the people who was living in the house to live :P...

the second game I can't really remember but there was walls and sand including... the player had to walk thro the walls or something and change them to sand :P...

please help me find these two games it would bring so many memories back =D

Now if you have so much memories about those two games, maybe you could describe them more detailed?

Even if it isn't either one of them, you should try them out, they're pretty good.......

Santaman? It's on dosgames.com
http://www.dosgames.com/ss.php?filename=santaman.gif

But it doesn't really fit your description.....

Or by 'turning walls into sand' did you meant something as in Rockford?
