There’s this one game I remember playing or maybe watching my dad playing. There was something with a princess who was sick, and I remember a picture of the princess on the right side of the screen. The closest thing I’ve found is King’s Quest, but I’m not sure that’s it.

There was also a game that might have been like a Brøderbund game, and there was a screen with a sort or skeumorphic lined paper look, and you could type stuff or drag icons onto it (sort of like writing a message with some words replaced with emojis), and then a Microsoft Sam type voice would read it. I remember writing the “jingle bells, Batman smells” song on it.
