Hello there! I've just remembered these flash games I used to play back when I was little. Most games I did manage to find on my own, but these games are rather... elusive. As a kid, I'd go EVERYWHERE to find browser games, and of course, when I discovered this certain site, I didn't just skip it, of course not! This site was the Happy Meal site. I'd play on there as much as I could as a little kid (for like... a month). And obviously, me being nostalgic as I am, I wanted to try and find these games again. Obviously, they changed the site, and removed every game that I COULD remember. Obviously this made me sad, but here's the strange part. As I am unable to remember the names of these games, I'd search up things such as "mcdonalds flash games" and I'd put in details I remember from those games, and I haven't seen a SINGLE game I remember playing show up. You'd think it'd be easy to access videos of kids playing these games SOMEWHERE, but there isn't even a SCREENSHOT I could find of any of them. After this disappointment, I turned to the Wayback Machine, and even THAT doesn't have anything crucial. As far as I can tell, you can't even load the site at all on there. The version of the site before 2010 also appears to be running on Flash, so it was almost an immediate dead end. I can only remember 3 of these games vividly, and hopefully I'll at least find SOMEONE who remembers these! I feel like they might've not even existed, and little me was just daydreaming.
Some Alien Game
This is the game I remember most vividly. The game starts with what looks like 2 alien hamsters, one green, one pink. A cliche alien bad guy then kidnaps the pink hamster, and blasts off to, assumingly the moon. The game then starts after the green hamster gets in a mech. You hop on platforms to reach the moon, and you eventually fight robots once you reach the moon.
An Earth Day Game
This game starred 2 kids. You got to choose between being the boy or the girl for this one. You'd run around a house, turning lights and unused electronics off before getting a funfact shoved in your face. This game, however, I'm not sure if it was even on the McDonalds site.
A DJ Rhythm Game..?
This game is one I'm really unsure of. All I remember is playing as a character who's placed in the center of a ring, and you'd click(?) apple slices to the beat(?). A part of me remembers the character being the green hamster making a comeback, but I'm not exactly 100% sure.
Those 3 games are the ONLY ones I can vividly remember. I'm hoping I could at least get ONE screenshot from ONE of these games to see if I'm crazy or not! Please help!
