I made a thread about this game a few weeks ago but it got little to no attention so I'm doing this again
I'm looking for this game from my childhood called PBS Kids Play. It was a subscription based educational game by PBS, similar to ABCmouse. It came out in about 2007/08/09 and was discontinued in 2015 for using "obsolete technologies". It is now lost, and when I say lost, I mean really lost. Only a few screenshots and clips have survived. Which is sad, honestly.
Here's what I remember from the game.
There was a home edition and a classroom edition. I always played home edition, obviously. The game opened with a planet and Dash, who was the host, saying "doink" in a box. Dash had a weirdly deep voice. The homeroom was in a box and you could decorate it with whatever you want. There was also a play room(for games) and TV room(for watching PBS Kids shows). The shows in the program were Curious George, Bob The Builder, Super WHY, Thomas and Friends, Franny's Feet, Berenstain Bears, Wumpa's World, Mama Mirabelle, Dinosaur Train, Mister Rogers, and some random panda guy I for the life of me cannot remember. You could go outside the box to the shows. Each of the games had 3 levels and each "level" was a minigame. The games I remember are a Curious George pizza game, country game, pond game, firefighter game, Bob the Builder safety game, a Berenstain Bears chore game, a langauge game with the panda and a Mister Rogers emotion game. You would earn prizes for completing the 3 minigames. Curious George had balloons for example. They would be in a treasure chest and you could favorite games in a book bag thing. There were also some random art and music things, like a Curious George jukebox thing.
I really hope we can find this game!
