Pokémon Mystery Dungeon and Broken Sword aside, this is one of the few games I played as a kid. It is a simple puzzle game without any action or force, just like Broken Sword where you can just play the story. It has individual levels where you are faced with a challenge, to build a system that achieves a specific goal. For that, you need to use the parts provided. There are no NPCs, but in the later games there was a professor making funny comments, just like George Stobbard. Just like Broken Sword, my dad was the one to introduce me to that game. And since it is pretty old, I think it might be difficult to get it running on Windows 11. But I have to admit that I barely think about this game and have no clue if we still have the disc we used back then. I checked the internet at some time, but then forgot about it again.

Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon
Zelda: The Wand of GamelonZelda: The Wand of Gamelon was the product of a compromise between Nintendo and Philips following their failure to release a CD-ROM based add-on to the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. It was developed in tandem with Link: The Faces of Evil and marks the first game where the eponymous princess Zelda is playable. The Wand of Gamelon differ from most conventional Zelda games as it is a platformer with a side-scrolling view, similar to The Adventure of Link. Stages are accessed from a world map, with more becoming available as Zelda clears an area or defeats a boss. The game have been subject to much criticism and Nintendo does not recognize it as part of the series.

Stronghold 2
Stronghold 2Tax, torture or treat your peasants! Rehabilitate criminals or sentence them to death? Decide as you joust over a lavish banquet, all while under siege from the warmongering Lord Barclay. Will you entertain with medieval tournaments or rule with an iron fist and dispense feudal justice to overworked and malnourished peasants? With powerful barons jostling for power over a disintegrating kingdom, it is up to you to stem the tides of ambition and unite the land under the one true King! Building on the sim gameplay of the original Stronghold, Stronghold 2 allows players to rule as they please and still conquer each skirmish. Unhappy peasants turn to crime and must be punished, rival lords can raise entire armies on their title alone and sieges must be fought tooth and nail, with close combat taking place inside castle structures. Stronghold 2 Online extends this gameplay to competitive multiplayer for up to eight players, with offline skirmish mode also available against computer-controller opponents. The online services used GameSpy which was shutdown. The Steam Edition is the only version of Stronghold 2 that still features multiplayer using Steam Multiplayer.
