We had Pandora’s Box(a puzzle game) and Riddle of the Sphinx(My mom is the only one who has figured out at least some of the mystery). Some Call of Duty-esque games (that I somehow understood and liked to play when I was three) and, ironically, Candyland(which I still play today even though it originally came in a glorious cereal box which carried all of my hopes and dreams in a tiny CD), along with many assorted games related to television shows.
