Identify This Old Game - Donald Duck Builds A Boat

[holyman9]

Hey guys,
I played this really old game when I was like 10, and it was on my friend's console, but I don't know which one. The game was, i think, either Donald Duck or Goofy going from building to building playing various games and collecting parts for this boat he/they were making. Does anyone know this game?
The second game that was on the same system was a fighter/platformer in which there was a king or something and a LOT of big mushrooms to jump on as well as a forest of some kind (kind of surrealistic, methinks).

If anyone can identify any of these two games and the system, it would be very much appriciated. Just feeling kind of nostalgic for those two games for some reason, even though I didn't play them that much. Thanks a lot

Hmmm, if you could remember what platform it was that would help, I remember a Donald Duck Platformer for N64, maybe thats it? I dunno, try going on some emulation site and looking for them, might find em there.

[holyman9]

no, its definatelly not for N64! I played this game back in like 1994, and it was probably on an even older system! It was in colour though... i think :P I'm asking around here becasue I've been looking for it for some time, but can't seem to find it anywhere.

You are not talking about Duck Tales, right? I don't remember much about the game so...

As for the other, Super Mario Brothers? Or perhaps Super Cauldron?

[moogle]

Hmmm...ok. I have no clue at all then, anybody else?

Well I remember Donald Duck's Playground - You played Donald who had to do some odd jobs to collect money - to make a playground for his nephews... The game you described sounds similar - so it's probably a sequel.

The other game does sound like Super Mario Brothers (jumping on mushrooms and fighting King Kupa - that's the name right?).

[BeefontheBone]

Koopa methinks.

Congradulations guys - you got one! Yes, it is donald duck's playground and now I know that the system I played on was a comodore 64! Awsome stuff, thanks so much.
For the other game - it is DEFINATELLY not super mario and its not super cauldron, the screenshots don't look familiar. It is in a jungle-like setting and is with a fighter dude who looks like conan or something... I think you can be several characters including a woman and a fat/strong dwarf-like man... maybe some d&d side-scroller??? I'll go to an emulation site and check out c64 roms! Thanks for the help again.

Battle Axe, but no mushrooms. :blink:

[a1s]

the one of the golden axe series?

[efthimios]

:D Golden Axe! Not Battle Axe! Too much Galactic Civilizations LOL

haha, yes you were!
I'm beginning to fear that I had many games all jumbled up in my head because Golden Axe seems to fit so much, but yet the screenshots do not bring back memories... I'll go on a c64 emu site and check out the games - one by one - until I find something that may fit the description. In the meantime, thanks for all the help! :D

[Sebatianos]

Hehe - good old Commodore 64...
I suggest you go to the lemon64 site - that's the best C64 site around. If they can't help you with that game nobody can (although it sounds familiar now that you mentioned the woman and the dwarf...).

Do you mean Gauntlet (http://www.mobygames.com/game/gauntlet/screenshots) ??? It has a women, but no dwarf (Golden Axe does have one)... I used to love this game on the C64...

IT HAS BEEN FOUND!

The first game is, as already established, Donald Duck's Plaground.
After extensive search of lemon64.com, I found out that the second game is Stormlord. Its funny actually, because both of these games came out for both c64 and amiga, so im not sure which system I played, probably the c64 though.
It would also appear that I did mix up several games, as this one has only one character (a fat fighter w/ a beard). I probably also played one of the Golden Axe games and mixed the two up.
Thanks to everyone for their help.
