Hello!
I'm looking for a game I played a while ago but cannot remember the name of. I've tried doing a number of different searches for it, but have has no luck.
The entire of this description is going off of memory, so I apologize in advance if I get some details slightly wrong.
I'm pretty sure the game was flash-based. It had a number of different characters in a select screen and you unlock more as the game goes on (I think some of them might have been pay to unlock too, but I'm not super sure about that part). You select a team of characters for each level and each different character had a different... "class" I guess you could call them. I think you started with some pretty basic classes unlocked, like a warrior guy and an archer person, but later on I feel like there was a treeman or something and a wizard, I think... (and a ninja maybe?) The characters all had different attack ranges, or areas of effect and I believe they had levels and experience, but that could be quite wrong. Anyway, once the characters has been selected you went to the level, which was presented in a top-down fashion. each character was represented by a square with their face in it, I think. The enemies were also represented in the same manner, probably with standard fantasy rpg baddies (like orcs and such). (This next part I know for sure) The gameplay was tactical in nature and used a square grid. The level scrolled from the top of the screen downwards. Finally, the graphics were cartoon-like and I think were meant to give it a lighthearted atmosphere.
Sorry for my rather vague description, like I said previously, this is all coming out of memory, so it's fuzzy at best. =S
Any help is certainly appreciated!

Aww man, those are quite vague info.
I do remember a game like that but it wasn't a flash game...in fact it was during the DOS era. But I'm pretty sure that's not what you're looking for. I also forgot the game title anyway.

If you're sure it's a flash game you could just search around the flash game directory of any flash game site under the appropriate category. But if it's not a flash game you could try to remember some keywords that are either in the game itself or at least the words that describe the game...sometimes that works. If not you could go a bit more general like trying to determine its genre or something like that then go from there...usually it works out. At least that's what I do...sometimes I find it, sometimes I don't.
