Every 15 year old to 20-something has memories of playing Super Mario 64 on their Nintendo 64 as a kid, and every PokeKid remembers their first Pokemon game which invariably comes from the GameBoy line, and every Dungeon Master will shill Baldur's Gate to you as a pinnacle of RPG storytelling. Then there's just some games that you just don't talk about -- maybe don't even remember playing -- that, when you suddenly and unexpectedly encounter them again later in life you suddenly find yourself overwhelmed with childhood memories of Glover or Thrillville: Off the Rails...
And then there's some games you just cannot remember beyond some isolated but vivid memories of playing them as a kid, and this thread is just for those memories, and for other people to help fill the blanks.
As a child I was raised by my great aunt who spoiled me silly; she was a nurse, it was her nature to be nurturing. It was also, however, her nature to be overbearing about anything and everything hygiene. Supporting my gaming habits and promoting good hygiene mixed one day when she brought me home a game that was handed out at St. Mary's; a fighting game(?) where every character is a germ and every stage is a visceral and gross image of sick people and infected insides, tolerable only by their unchecked cartoonishness, that sought to teach you about washing your hands. I cannot find it anywhere online, and I'm not entirely convinced I'm not the only person to ever play the game ever.
