#992Some kind of RPG where you're a primitive human (70,000 years ago or something).

#993It's called 'State Street Dodge'. You play a bicycle messenger in 1990s downtown Madison, Wisconsin, rushing important legal documents across the isthmus. You ride a super sweet freestyle BMX bike, and you rack up points for doing tricks, jumping beer truck ramps, riding up walls, and dodging the ever shifting throngs of college students, hayseed tourists, and harried bureaucrats. Bonus levels let you switch to skateboard, Rollerblades, and fixie. Soundtrack is awesome. Lots of Easter eggs.

#994Not a big gamer so apologies if it exists.
I feel like Pokémon go style games are massively underexploited.
Not just augmented reality but using cities as playgrounds. Nokia did some interesting things with this in the late 90s.
A fps might be problematic, but what about non violent trading (certain locations have mines etc, you can use resources to construct factories visible in augmented reality etc.) essentially a parallel world economy and reality that sits atop the physical word.

#995[Borrowers: The Game] You live as tiny mouse-sized humans existing with regular humans who should never know your presence as you occupy the walls and spaces in their home. Every day you must hunt for food, which involves collecting gear to traverse spaces (paperclip + string = grappling hook and rope, matchstick = torch, plastic bag = parachute) to reach places where food is stored (i.e. the kitchen - defended by th…

#998I want to play a real-time strategy game with a limit to the number of actions per minute. Look, I'm an old man now. I can't compete on reaction speed against 13-year-olds micro-managing each unit to perfection. But I can macro. I can plan. I can strategize. I can do that better than those damn kids. I want everyone to have a pool of 5 orders, refilling itself by 1 order per (1 second? 3 seconds?). Orders can be to a…
Fancy to try chess?
Re: Ask HN: What game do you wish existed?
#999A game with a good, complex and deep magic-system. Magic normally is just limited to cast predefined spells, bought at the shop or learned along the way. At best they have some elements interacts, but barely more. What I want is something where you can literally research magic, discover new effects, combine them to create new magic in form of spells, artifacts, rituals and so on. It should be easily accessible, after…
Its pretty old so maybe just useful for inspiration but the old Amiga/Atari game Dragon Lord / Dragon's Breath (Europe) has a very interesting custom magic system in which you can create unique spells using combinations of various alchemical reagants.
FWIW I think it's a very difficult thing to create such a system, without making it a tedious exercise in testing ingredient combinations.
