Post a pic if at all possible
Jumpstart 4th Grade Haunted Island
Teaches a bunch of subjects and helps develop problem-solving skills; its soundtrack has zero right to be so bitchin’ but it is
Was asking about this today because I couldnt remember the name or franchise and Lemmy came thru, reuniting me with yet another thing I could remember sound of but not the content or name, long thought lost to the sands of time
Looking for stuff like Reader Rabbit, KidPyx, etc
Kidpix Delux 3
I have fond childhood memories of playing Doom 3 with the lights off in my basement. Scariest shit ever.
Also Metal Gear Solid 2 stands out as a game that blew my mind.
I played all sorts of edutainment games, but I’ll give a deep cut and go with Grammar Games. I’ve never tried booting it up as an adult. I wonder if it holds up even slightly.
Tarzan
Animorphs game from the Animorphs website, back when the internet was new
Chess Master 5000
Holy crap that Animorphs game; I absolutely remember playing that. Stupid Yeerks
Infocom games such as Hitchhiker’s Guide To The Galaxy
Pajama Sam: You are What you Eat From Your Head to Your Feet was a favorite of mine as a child:
Also had to look it up but Elmo’s Preschool was a big feature of my under-5 PC gaming:
2nd grade or so was a lot of Disney Princess: Magical Dressup with some cute mini games and a LOT of uncanny valley jank lol:
And alongside that was the PC version of Battle for Bikini Bottom, with mini games instead of the platformer the console had, but I’m struggling to find any decent gameplay screen grabs.
Of course that’s all just PC gaming.
Anybody remember the Cartoon Network island flash games? It was like a resort and I could have sworn there were multiple installments.
Ultima V
The Dr. Brain series.
The Incredible Toon Machine.
The EcoQuest series.
Chip’s Challenge:
Commander Keen:
Can’t forget good ol’ Ski Free:
Hell yeah, Keen is a classic, I gotta emulate it sometime to relive the memories
Commander Keen:
Awesome. That’s a screenshot that I can hear. Nice.
Chuck’s Challenge 3D is a spiritual sequel of Chip’s Challenge, with the same puzzle designer
Roadrash & Prince of Persia & IGI 2
I like how if you hadn’t put IGI, there’s no way to tell if you’re talking early 90s or late 2000s
Anyone remember willy the caveman?
Thinkin Things
And Sammy’s Science House
Although I never saw the packaging. All games I had for the C64 I got at school.
