Here are some computer games I had as a kid, but I don’t remember the titles. They are all from the mid to late ‘90’s and were on Windows 95 unless otherwise noted.
1. It wasn’t really a game per se, but it was a program where you can write documents. The host was a blue skinned, Picasso-painting looking man. When the program started up, the host was riding downhill on a grocery cart.
2. It was an activity center with educational mini games. You rode on a train and the conductor was a Lion. There was game where you ran a hat store that was in a tree and a purple bear-like monster was a customer and you had to make hats he liked. I think there was a math game with otters, but they could have been from another game.
3. It was a game for older kids, so it was kind of too hard for me asa little kid. It was another activity center type game. There was a character who was an orange skinned alien that wore a toga. He was like a Greek philosopher. He was the host. There was an activity where you can can make a scene underwater. There were a lot of futuristic things like a scuba suit for dogs and a submarine that moved as super speeds.
4. I didn’t own this game, but my dad got a poster for it. The poster had Disney style animation, with two girls (princesses) being sucked into a vortex, while a witch/sorceress grinning menacingly at them. I think the witch had red hair, a purple dress, lots of eye shadow, and long finger nails. I’m almost certain this game was a sequel or part of a series and it was meant for teens or adults. It was more likely an early 90’s game.
Number 2 I’m pretty sure is under the name brain bytes. I follow a lot of old cd-rom gaming channels and I even used to own that exact game. Try looking up brain bytes on youtube and you should be able to find what you’re looking for.

Thanks. Going off that lead, Number 2 was actually called Mighty Math Zoo Zillions (Brain Byte was just what they called individual mini game titles). I realized a Number 3 was Thinkin’ Things: Sky Island Mysteries. They were both made by the same company Edmark.
