The legend of Kyrandia or something
You mean Sim Ants my dude
It’s… an old game. Maybe it ran on DOS, but it sure was Windows 95 era.
It was a game for kids where you had to spell words. It took place in Africa I believe, because I remember vividly that there were hippos. You had to solve puzzles before spelling words.
I might be misremembering the following : you played as a boy with a loincloth. When you succeeded in solving a puzzle he rowed upstream on a raft. I think I remember a man with a mask, might have been the kid himself.
That’s about everything I remember about this. If someone knows anything…
For me it was a game that used to be on Adult Swim’s website, it was a top-down open world pizza delivery game in the style of the first two Grand Theft Auto games. You had to deliver pizzas to some funny characters without crashing and damaging them or running over too many pedestrians and getting caught by the police. With the exception of mimes and guys in hot dog costumes which gave you bonus points, of course. You’d get fired if you got caught by the police too many times or wreck too many pizzas.
Ended up finally finding it last year, it’s called Pizza City. It’s no longer on Adult Swim, but has thankfully been preserved on other sites like Kongregate and archive.org. Still holds up to this day as a fun game!
It was zool and commander keen for me. Hard to describe and find the answer on Google for odd candy mountain game and game with trees with weird ass eyes. Anyways, found it eventually lol
I remember years ago I went looking for a game I used to play as a child where you start at a manhole cover and open it to reveal a beanstalk.
The game was called “the manhole”
I learned a lot about the internet that day.
It turned out that star wars supremacy which I had long since lost the disc for was digitally released as rebellion.

For more engagement: a Doom reskin where you shot balloons at some (to child me) scary af toys that came alive and were ornery. Windows 3.1/DOS era, was part of a shareware collection.
Bad Toys?
Edit: You know what I don’t think this was what I’m thinking about BUT I did play this and may be mixing the memory with another shooter in the same collection.
Waku Waku 7, very silly fighter
I’m looking for the name of the 3D racing game my classmates used to play on the school club PC. It came out in the 2000s and ran natively on Windows. The first track in the career mode (as far as we ever got) was dirt and inside an nighttime arena. There were crowds and even some onlookers behind barricade blocks around the track. I don’t think the cars could be damaged, and there were intended jumps over lower tracks sections, that could be enjoyed by driving from below to jump really high. Several views were available including one with a rear-view mirror, and a “blimp” aerial view in replay mode. It looked a lot like the nighttime arena tracks in ATV Offroad Fury (pictured) but with closed-cab vehicles.

There was this game I swear was called Solaris but was not able to find. The whole thing is a model of a star system with a couple dozens of oddly-named planets and you need to “shoot units” at the planets you want to conquer. You basically have to estimate how many units you need to take it over or something.
I’ll probably never be able to find it cause I can’t even describe it so well haha
Almost sounds like eufloria
Probably not Stellaris right?
Do you perhaps mean solarmax (1/2)?
It took me FOREVER to find, but I was determined to find my old games. I assumed they were Sega Master System games, so I started watching videos like “best master system games” and such.
Then when I finally came across them, the memories all came rushing back like it was the 80s again! It’s so frustrating but when you finally find it, it’s such a good feeling.
Theres a shitty flash game i spent years playing that ill never find again. Top down worms game very similar to vampire survivors in gameplay, only many years before it.
