I keep trying to find this old educational game that was creepy. I don’t remember much else about it and it is frustrating to know I’ll likely never figure this out. I don’t even remember what kind of educational content it was like math or reading or what.

Edit: thanks for the suggestions, everyone. And keep em coming!

I don’t remember much about the game except it was set in a house of some sorts and had this really creepy vibe to it. I want to say it involved aliens, but I don’t think that’s accurate. Might have been monsters instead. They weren’t humanoid-like creatures though.

We got it the same time we got this other computer game called Radio Addition and may have been in a pack together, but might have just been next to each other when my mom bought them. It ran on Windows, to further narrow it down.

Edit2: I found it by chance! The game I was thinking of was Math Blaster Mystery The Great Brain Robbery https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o3USKxJd4J4&pp=ygUUTWF0aCBibGFzdGVyIG15c3Rlcnk%3D

Y’all got me thinking more about it and I asked an LLM tonight and it said this was likely the game I’m remembering and it’s right!! Super creepy colors and music I remember.

So that solves the mystery for me lol. Thanks for the recommendations!

    lol it’s funny because as I typed this, I was thinking someone would think that was it. I loved the Jumpstart games and especially the 3rd grade one. But that’s not it, unfortunately. I’m grateful I remember it, but I played it so much I can’t forget.
