Windows PC game/90s-early 2000s/ Educational/Interactive

Post by sidms »

Hello! I've been trying to look for a game. Here are the details I can remember:

> I played it in a pc, it's probably from a CD and installed into the pc.
> It was around late 90s - early 2000s that I've played it.
> It's educational and interactive. Like a point and click. You click on details and characters and they move and are described.
> It's a third person view game. Or bird's eye view sort of.
> It's 2D, and the game was cartoony, flat colors but also not extremely pixelated.
> There's no specific objective to it. There are different activities but I can only remember two. One was being able to go to specific places (ie. A town of bears where you can click on different things and they animate like a mom bear scolding her kid or a school bus full of kids; another was an arctic setting and I remember when you hovered over the arctic option the game would say "Arctic" and you could interact with that place too). The other activity you could do in the game was paint. You have swatches at the bottom of the screen and when you clicked on a color it said the name of that color. It also had paint brush pattern options and I can recall picking one with a sort of roof tile/scale pattern and it made sounds.


I'd really appreciate the help.

Not sure; you can look at the Mobygames game browser for educational games with e.g. an art focus and see what can be found:

I tried looking in the 'Setting: Arctic' and 'Animals: Bears' groups, but did not find anything that fitted well.

Educational games are poorly represented in this game database, unfortunately.
