You unlocked my memories of a few other games that are probably not that great that I used to play around that time. Here's one:

I'm at a loss on this one. Looks like a store brand Serious Sam to me.

 

[dr grim]

same here, it sure does gives a serious sam vibe though.

 

[Clippy]

Alright, it's been a while so it's hint time: It is indeed Serious Sam from Wish. It's a PC exclusive developed in South Korea and released in 2004.

Also, a masterstroke of vague hints - Vin Diesel.

Journal entry #57:
It's been almost 20 days since I've last guessed correctly. Provisions are low & so are my guesses. I've crossed 7 pages but still no visible clues in sight. The demons in my head are starting to get to me. I keep following the map but there are PC sinkholes everywhere, it's costing me precious time. Clippy & Ramy are leading the expedition, but it's hard to keep up with them... I think they gave us the wrong map."

 

[Clippy]

I have no idea what this is. It looks like an indie take on old Ultima games and there have been plenty of those to go around.

The Cathedral of Attnam?

The Cathedral of Attnam?

Googled that out of curiosity and it seems that the actual title is Iter Vehemens ad Necem. The Cathedral thing is just a group of people playing the game by the looks of it.

The Cathedral of Attnam?

That's the name of the game's homepage, and not the game itself. But it's close enough that I'll call it solved.

The game is "Iter Vehemens ad Necem", or IVAN, a Freeware rougelike that was semi-popular in the 2000s.

I so happy yet astonished about how many games I have never played, seen or experienced before. I thought I saw it all, yet I find myself wronged. Thank you for sharing your experiences everyone.

Also Salaam Everyone.

I'm fine with jan taking it, there's no way I would've found the title without his research.

Damn, fairly incomplete research apparently!

OK then, let's see...

Airport Tycoon Deluxe?

 

[Clippy]

Airport Tycoon Deluxe?

It's Airline Tycoon Deluxe but I'll take it. You're up!

That would make sense lol been a solid decade since I last played the game.

Here mine:

Feel like one of those early Point n click, may even be on amiga / Amstrad

I would assume early Sierra or something of that ilk given that it has what looks like a text parser at the bottom of the screen.
