An old, obscure Windows game I can't remember... Maybe you can help me?

So, I recently remembered about an old, obscure Windows game that I absolutely LOVED, and I really want to find it again, but I can't remember what it was called. Wonderland is arguably somewhat obscure... Maybe you guys can help me? I've posted everything I remember about it in this thread on Twitter: https://twitter.com/rainbowmon2018/stat ... 23745?s=09

If any of you know what it is, PLEASE tell me! Any help would be greatly appreciated!

No idea, but I can recommend another old obscure Windows game from 1998, Recoil. Despite its name and description, it has nothing other than screams to barely make it PG instead of E 10+. Look it up, it was moved from CDs to online awhile ago by some sites and it's a great play, especially for multiplayer (but I haven't found anyone else who plays it online as of yet).

That sounds really cool. I'd actually like to know what it is too if you find it.

Try posting on reddit.com/r/tipofmytongue . People have helped me find some really obscure stuff there. Read all the rules for posting before posting, and I recommend copypasting the text from your twitter into the body of the post instead of making people go there (you might get downvoted/ignored otherwise).

Happy hunting!

Thanks for the suggestion, though I... Don't have a Reddit, and I'm not the kind to make an account for something willy-nilly, especially with something like that.

Do you think I should copy all of the thread here? The main reason I didn't before was because I didn't feel like constantly switching apps on my phone at the time, but I'm not against doing it now.

UPDATE: Thanks to a fellow Wonderfan (@LightningShade0 on Twitter), I think I've finally figured out what in the *UNIVERSE* this game was. I'm not really one for demos, and the little money I have is being saved up for Clive 'N' Wrench later this year, so I can't check it out now... But based on the screenshots, I'm 99.99999999999999999999999999999% sure that this is it.

I wasn't expecting to suddenly find out what this was 2 years after my original post about it. Guess posting about it in another similar Off-Topic thread not long ago paid off!

Try the demo. If you are sure, I'll buy you a copy.
