I just know I am going to regret asking this here. I can already see The Abyss replies just waiting. I was talking with my cousin's kid who is turning into a gamer and I was talking to him about some older games I had played. I am kinda hard stuck looking for one..just shoot me now but thought I'd go ahead and ask here:

90's game I'm pretty sure. PC game. Underwater base (Isometric view I believe) where aliens are invading the base and you have to fight back. Every time a new game starts all the items get randomized as to what their effect will be. Example: A fire extinguisher may make one shrink or maybe grow into a bigger type. You have to experiment to find out if the items are useful or not (aside from the laser rifle dispenser which always did damage). One of your security guys when going into Melee would occasionally yell "Bautista is king!" as he punched or kicked an enemy. I believe you could also go into the underwater access chamber to put on a deep sea suit to access locked off areas of the base if you needed. My Google-Fu is weak apparently.

Just to be clear, this is a squad based top down tactical game or a FPS or some type? Maybe XCOM Terror from the Deep?

Must be really obscure for you to know all those random details and still not be able to get it on google. and no, that's definitely not Terror From the Deep.

Aqua rings is my guess.

So.... '90s PC game, squad based strategy fighting aliens in underwater bases but it's NOT X-Com : Terror from the Deep ? The special edition maybe....

Ya few of those I remember playing. Starflight I spent a good bit of time playing. Thanks for the suggestions all.

Of course, right after I submit that message above, my brain decided to remind me of the name: Enemy Infestation 1998 (don't ask me why it has an Abyss vibe)

That list is awful, I mean it's got the original X-Com, Wing Commander and syndicate in it.

The wrestler became a thing after the game, but seeing some screenshots, there is a character named Batista, so it might just be a coincidence and a red herring for the search ! A small fish compared to "underwater" but heh :p

I'm going to kind of hijack the thread.

There was a game on PS1 (and I believe it had a sequel). I'm pretty sure it was Japanese. You're this girl in a house and people are coming to kill you. You build traps in the room to kill the people coming to attack you. Shit like spike traps, stuff falling from the ceiling, balls that roll, fireballs, etc.
