PUT A BANDAGE ON IT! I still remembered that vividly after 20 years

[@Acoustic_Theory]

We had this running on a mac, and I remember playing this with my brother and sister on Christmas day, probably 1999 but I think it was earlier.

[@steveo.574]

Bro the boat task, the coffee/restaurant task, damn I'm in the past lol

[@Equinsu0cha]

i literally just heard the voice without watching the video...

[@Yudit346]

That's my most vivid memory of this game too 😂 I quote it all the time

[@wizzlet6821]

This is EXACTLY why I'm here...because I remembered that lolol

[@BluBean1990]

You don’t understand, I’ve had this game on my mind for months and I could never find anything close to it when I looked anything up for it!! When I found it I almost started crying because I loved this game so much!! I’m so happy I found it finally!!

[@ThorzyTTV]

I legit had to google cat and worm 90s pc game. I hear you on the emotional part. It brought back so many good memories playing this with friends. I’m happy you found it :)

[@mayayaya8880]

literally me and i just found it 😭😭 my google search history is broken

[@mintypuff]

Same, I just got an article about the books and I was like WAIT OMG ITS THAT ONE GAME I FINALLY KNOW WHAT IT IS

[@TheLionheartCenter]

Yessss this was my fav as a kid!!!

[@bigboy242]

no you don’t understand. i’ve been trying to remember this game for 16 years.

[@trollsthatlol1]

It's surreal seeing nostalgia from thing you haven't seen since Kindergarten lol!

[@president_beyonce]

This is crazy!

[@steveo.574]

My cousin gave me this on my birthday holy fuck it takes me back! Haha

[@zyionfreeman680]

I wish I would stay as a kid playing these PC games. ☹

[@user-me7pn6kl2z]

Millenial kids nostalgia right here

[@robertgiardino3314]

“Put a bandage on it” used to crack me up as a kid

[@ghostbird92]

To this day, my dad and I will still say "I'll put a baaandage on it" lol

[@robertgiardino3314]

That’s so funny because me and my parents still say this as well!

[@Yudit346]

Same!

[@kendallthiede373]

​@@robertgiardino3314Me too!

[@spencernelsen1697]

I remember as a Kindergartner my disc was scratched and the Gas Station never loaded! So many songs and sounds are pure nostalgia!

[@pixyface101]

I wonder if we had the same disk. Mine used to get stuck all the time and crash because. Was stuck

[@PimplyPig]

Ok, seriously. Was every game broken at the gas station part? Mine also didn't work on that level.

[@inkzi]

Dude me too, same spot what are the odds we all have that

[@aurora-custom-concrete]

I have no memories of the gas station so i think same here

[@migueljr501]

The nostalgia bruh. I miss my childhood 😔

[@9492180]

The intro bringing back memories I loved this game!

[@ambiguousradish2423]

I used to play this in the morning before going to school. I believe I was in Kindergarten. I had forgotten all about it until something sparked a memory. Holy cow

[@hannahhoke1067]

I used to struggle so hard building the hot chocolate machine 😭😭

[@frankinglese7100]

That was actually my favorite part of this game.

[@TheLovelynoel]

I think I remember crashing the firetruck into the cafe table 😂😂

[@azranger7294]

It was so hard not to 😭

[@azranger7294]

And then there was that idiot teacher who let the chicks play in the road

[@FamilyGirl566]

I missed this on my grandparents' computer

[@sydneymartin112]

I loved this game as a kid!!

[@frankinglese7100]

20 years ago, I got this game for Christmas!😊😊😊

[@tessaminick8745]

I loved playing this game as a kid. Then one day I heard crackling in the cd drive when trying to play it, and when i took it out it was in pieces. That's the only cd rom game that happened to and it traumatized me as a kid lol

[@kayvend3744]

This is it !!!! Omg you guys .

[@ian_jq]

1:14 I woke up in the middle of the night with the "house on fire" jingle in my head and had to come here to listen to it again after all these years. Thanks

[@gl1tchygreml1n]

So many childhood memories 🥺 I really wish I still had the disc

[@m4nic3xpressive]

My god i played this everyday of my little childhood.

[@scoon2117]

Me and my sisters loved this game as kids. I remember building and painting the big ship, driving through the town, working at the fast food place. Greatest game ever. So many good memories.

[@JustFaithSilly]

I remember playing this is preschool or kindergarten, it’s a lot of fun!💓💘💖💞💝💗💕🥰🤩😍🌟

[@hayleywaalen2612]

I remember playing this all the time (Not the Gas Station because it doesn't work)

[@missoli]

SAME! Also the wind game gave me problems too

[@hayleywaalen2612]

[@missoli]

@@hayleywaalen2612 whenever I opened it the colors got messed up and then when I clicked anything it crashed

[@1CrazyWeedSmoker]

The gas station never worked for me lol

[@snafubar447]

This game, Spy Fox, Duke Nuke 'Em, and DOOM. The early/mid 90s were a wild wasteland for PC.

[@LinsayChristine]

This was my favorite game ever as a kid 😭

[@Sonicphantom47]

Every time I tried to play the gas station my game crashed

[@JSmon]

It's a glitch in the game. I fixed it by copying a missing file from the CD to the main folder after installation.

[@Sonicphantom47]

@@JSmon oh I wasn’t the only one?

[@JSmon]

Nope. Apparently other people had the same issue with this version.

[@Sonicphantom47]

@@JSmon well I’ll say this. When I played this as a kid (which is when I played it. I no longer own the game) I got jumpscared every time Huckle stubbed his finger while making the roof on the house building level

[@azranger7294]

@@Sonicphantom47 me too lmao!! i think the worst part was that his face would turn all red

[@GrandTourHTX]

Holy shit. I found this and pulled this out of the recesses of my memory. Had to be 5 years old.

[@GrandTourHTX]

@thanomyloans2585 I never owned it. I played it in kindergarten I believe. I'm 30 years old now.

[@austenoliviawheeler3993]

I adore clips of games, music and Movies in dvd and VHS so much! Sometimes i like to distract/entertain myself with them atop my pics to make look like I’m actually using any kind of actual household item to play games, listen to music and watch TV and movies with characters or/and people for all age groups/all people of all ages which is very um you know multitasking (several things to do all at once)

[@austenoliviawheeler3993]

Well… these games are very old but I loved them when I was a young kid

[@kiramarie_]

I HAVE BEEN SCOURING THE INTERNET FOR THIS GAME

[@lauram8554]

I loved this game! Especially 'put a bandage on it'

[@Mohamed_OSS]

Take me back 😢

[@AdrianTWPF]

I remember having this game as a child

[@XxxTheCoolKidxxX]

I used to love this game!

[@AlexPerrine]

I’m surprised that this game wasn’t updated again to match Busytown Mysteries

[@AlexPerrine]

@thano myloans I don’t.

[@kathryntucker7823]

I remember this game

[@LaMissa1]

If you go too fast with the shingles, Huckle misses and hammers his thumb lol!

[@azranger7294]

that always used to scare the crap out of meeeee!!

[@erindurkin4441]

I remember playing this game when I was little.

[@jak4470]

They removed the Bananas Gorilla segment because in the original books, he was a troublemaker, but the cartoon changed it so the new version went with it. I know because I still have the original DOS version.

[@pissotterflyswatter]

Discovered my floppies of this game.... the first 4 disks were written over by my dad 😭

[@christinesinclair6938]

I remember the house building mini-game would always crash the whole thing.

[@EmilBatStorm]

I somewhat remember the show but i didn't know there are games for the show

[@jimc1011a]

Game before other games. 1996 elementary school game vibes.

[@n16161]

Man I used to play this so much!!

[@andromacheofscythia4524]

This game was my life

[@tylerjaesmith]

I remember it being brighter :'(

[@cmcgoogle1687]

7:23 This part makes me laugh. Fortunately no one got hurt.

[@thedman957]

I was just sent back in time to 4-8 year old me😭

[@STSGuitar16]

I played this so dang much as a kid, but really only the part where you're at the ship for some reason lol

[@btsrosaline3559]

I wonder if the game still is available

[@donnieanderson612]

I remember playing this game in school elementary

[@LaMissa1]

I feel like I had an older version of this game though. The look and sound of it just isn’t quite right to me. But super cute and fun and pretty much the same thing anyhow. 😁

[@ZakWolf]

Yeah, this is a remake of a 1993 MS-DOS game.

[@duncanstephenson3589]

It's a good game to enjoy being busy at Busytown😊

[@duncanstephenson3589]

@thano myloans I have been for a long time.

[@hayleywaalen2612]

That came out the same year as Digimon Adventure

[@slurpwis]

I rember. :)

[@wizzlet6821]

DOCTA..I GOTTA PROBLEM..I FELL OFF THE SWING AND HIT MY BOTTOM

[@powellmorris8204]

The memories!!! 👍👍

[@ZakWolf]

Yep, this is an enhanced remake of the 1993 MS-DOS game. Pretty neat how they did this, as it's graphically superior to the original, along with the improved voice acting (the 1993 game had only one guy do all the voices, and I can tell you he's no Mel Blanc). Even the songs are exactly the same! But it's too bad they left out the "Bananas Gorilla" stage...

[@anniegao9105]

2 requests: an unnamed game that deals with weather featuring the anthromorphic sun wearing sunglasses and a sweater, and the other that deals with something that I used to remember back in preschool like the game with letters, numbers, and of course other exercises

[@steveo.574]

Holy nostalgia batman!

[@natachu2980]

Jeez, time really robbed us from our childhood huh

[@joelynch6098]

Damn I remember this game.

Sound like Tiny Toon Adventures Buster Bunny No Unknown Voice

Wait shouldn’t this PC game be based on the busy world of Richard scarry tv show?

Is this not the game where you play as a garbage man at some point? You drive around emptying trash cans and picking up banana peels and apple cores on the street, I didn’t see it anywhere and I thought I found my life long question 😢

[@c.bretmiller6148]

8:09 Jeez, Sgt. Murphy... That was Huckle's third crash in as many minutes... maybe we should reconsider giving a child a driver's license. Like, he's still in elementary school.
