Old Kids Circus Computer Game

Sep 07, 2012 02:07

I remember playing a children's computer game in the 90s that was centred around a circus or carnival. There were different activities related to each "booth" in the circus. The only activity I remember most about is one that had seals and they balanced beach balls on their noses. I think it may have had to do with counting. From my searches online ( Read more... )

Oh ffs can this community please change its settings to allow links??

Oh man I remember my brother having this

Okay in all my googling I'm only coming up with something called The 12 Circus Rings, and it only sounds familiar because it says there's someone named Esther (I think she was an elephant? Purple elephant? I think she was also the narrator?) who gives you a stuffed animal/prize with your tokens at the end? Does that sound familiar?

I don't remember this but apparently this was part if the game:

I do remember there being like a prize counter where you can claim stuff at the end with your tokens. The video link you posted didn't really seem familiar though, but thanks anyways!

Probably not it, but I had a PC circus game back then that was based on Hunchback of Notre Dame, I think the gargoyles would tell you what to do. I don't remember many other details but the internet says it had goat bowling, anyway...

Yeah, the game I'm thinking about wasn't Hunchback of Notre Dame. I also think it was older since I remember it being quite pixelated. Thanks anyways!

I randomly thought about this game again and through more searches, I have discovered that it is Math Rabbit by The Learning Company!

I most definitely played this game as a kid, but I don't remember the name. :/ I'm looking for it myself now, though. If I find it, I will let you know!

I think you're thinking of Fisher Price Ready for Preschool. I just spent an hour trying to remember it, and this thread came up in my search. I finally found it so I wanted to make sure I let you know, even though it's two years late. Hope I helped out in some way!

Was it "ZOO EXPLORERS." That is one I remember. You can look it up on YouTube.
