Need help...new poster here...been trying to find a game that I played as a kid in the 90s. I've been searching this for a few years now..one of my favorite educational style games as a kids and I'd love to see how it hold us today, but I can't find it in my old CDs (use to own it and would like to again).
I had windows 98 SE computer to play it on...I can't remember the name but here is what I remember about it:
- 2 Kids (a boy and girl) where in a relatives 2 stories mansion/house and where trying to fix dinner for the rest of their family by solving puzzle (educational style...math measurement, etc) through the house and back yard.
- In the kitchen you went to the fridge and clicked on a cow who brought up a game involving measurement and volumes to solve it and get milk for one of the recipes.
- Upstairs you have a room (I think first on right) where you talked to a relative that was on a Big TV screen and when you put on a helmet you were transported into a video game that involved math (I think the math game was pizza themed) and by winning that game you got a pizza.
- Upstairs, second room on right with a volcano lava room that you have to click and move either on lava rocks to adjust temperature for a microwave to warm up some food or you just used the microwave and tried not to get hit by the rocks.
- In the hallway upstairs there was a monkey that would scratch his head, hinge open the top half of his head and scratch his brain and throw out an item from him brain cavity area (usually a key) to help get into another room.
- I think there was a Yeti/abdominal snowman somewhere in the game with a puzzle you had to solve (not 100% sure of this part...but sure of all the rest).
- In the back room of the upstairs hallway there is a lounge where there is a Duck who acts like Elvis and sign duck parodies of famous songs. The game in this one was to create a playlist with the songs he was singing on that current set to match the total playlist time. When completed, you got access to the back stage of the lounge area which was the duck's dressing room where you found another item (usually a rose, if I remember correctly).
- I know there was 1 game you played in the back yard (I think it was the style of game where you have stones or tires in a certain order on the left and had 3 poles and have to move them with the rule of smaller can only go on bigger...not bigger on smaller and you had to move them from the left side to the right).
- After all room puzzles were done and it was time to serve dinner, you have to so a deductive reasoning puzzle where it gave clues to what items you found/made in the game went to each person and you had to figure who which item was for which dinner guest.
- After the dinning room part was done, the game was over and you could start again is you'd like.
- Also, If I remember correctly, it has cartoonish graphic somewhere between the mixed-up mother goose, freddy pharkas. Part of me wants to say Sierra or Luca Games may have made it, but I'm no where near 100% certain of an idea on what company made/published it
Thanks for all of your help with this.

not Sierra nor Lucas but McGraw Hill...
Want to say THANKS and CONGRATS...My 4+ year quest of trying to solve this puzzle and figure out the name of this game HAS BEEN SOLVED....Forgot about McGraw Hill as a game publisher...no wonder I couldn't find it by looking into the 90s archive of Sierra or Lucas Games..lol.....Time to go try to download a copy of it and see if it still holds up like Idiablo rules said:
remember.
THANKS AGAIN!!!
No, that's not it :/ if it helps I remember the maze being open on the top so you could jump and look over the walls. Croc doesn't have that gem thing, where (for example) you collect a purple gem and that opens all purple doors in the level.Pixelhunter said:
hey there, y'all. in my childhood there was a game against nazis and in the first mission you would start from a barn, inside a castle-like perimeter. i also remember a 2nd or 3rd mission where you would start from a boat, waiting for a friend to signal you with a flashlight, then you would dive in and reach the docks and start the proper mission. i also remember something about blowing up a bridge in that mission or the next. any help would be much appreciated.
So I am looking for a game, no idea how old it is or what platform it came from. All I can remember is that there was an old woman in it with a big head and a flower on top. She looked sort of like this:

Ah, too bad. Apart from the usual suspects like Croc, Gex and Spyro there's no other reptilian protagonists that springs into my mind. :-DTheKwak said:

Hey Everyone!
Okay so this one might be a tough one because i dont remember much about the game and also Nostalgia is cloudy my memory.
....
So this Game was a FIGHTING/BEATEM UP SIDE SCROLLER,where the guy CONSTANTLY WALKED,the hero was fairly well defined and a MUSCULAR BUFF (with a tanned skin i think)...we had to time our punches and kicks to beat up the things that came in our way (snakes,bandits,eagles etc).....the hero was FAIRLY LARGE....and it wasnt your typical final fight or battle toads type beat em up game.I played it about 14 years ago....
thanks

Game where it's a topdown arena shooter/melee game. It's one of the early F2P games published in Korea and sent overseas around 2001-2005 release date in NA.
So, it was a massively multiplayer online game where you queue up in p2p lobbies like those early f2p games along the lines of Rumble Fighter. I forget the title of the game, but it had preset classes with 0 customization and cartoony artstyle. One of the characters is a viking named Sven and another character is an archer. Couldn't find it googling and only end up finding Sven co-op, which this isn't.

Ok so... I was watching a streamer the other day on twitch. His stream is twitch.tv/sodapoppin if any of you have heard of him. He basically streams while playing video games with 15-20k viewers. Anyways, a while back he was playing a game where you are basically this person with a gun that can extract a sort of essence from these weird colorful.. blobs lol I don't quite know how to explain them. It is a very colorful game. Basically you build a farm and put these 'blob' creatures into them. You can breed different types of them to create new kinds. Feed them and you get to extract their 'essence(?)' from them which can be sold or used to create more of that type of blob. I remember seeing like... water creatures that had to be kept in a water habitat, lava creatures that explode, flying creatures, so many kinds. You could get auto feeders, auto essence extractors etc.. Also this game MIGHT be on steam. Im 80% sure it is but I have no idea. I dont know if this info helps you but im just giving everything i know and remember about the game lol If anyone knows please let me know asap. This is killing me! xD
Thanks in advance. <3

I played a game on PS2 around 9 years ago. It was a sort of futuristic car battle game. The cars were hover cars and you played in fairly large maps with about 10 cars. The aim was to destroy other cars and also to have the "ball" which you could score in different zones and get it off other players by bumping into them. I remember the cover art was a man with a scarred face wearing a crash helmet. Hope someone knows this as it has been really bugging me recently.

You were some kind of robot (2d realistic-looking flash game) that is escaping a facility i think
At some point you stumble upon a helicopter or something, and you try to destroy something. I think there were 2 parts of the game. At the first ones end, i think the heli crashed

Okay, so I vaguely remember this game.. So It's an old computer game probably from the library or whatever.
You play as these three white guys (Not the race, literal white) and they have big round noses
I remember their personalities too, one was stupid one was mean and one was nice. They were trying to escape a boulder and I think they got trapped in a cave while running from it and you had to collect things to get them out. One was singing "She'll be coming round' the mountain" on a guitar, that's all I remember.. It's been stuck in my head for so long I wanna find it so bad :'( hopefully I gave a good description of my 8 or 9 year old memory.
