C64
There was a game for this system who's name eludes me.  It involved being in a hotel or multi-room building, and each room had a puzzle or a mini-game in it.

Colecovision
This game involved running up a lot, dodging weird things and trying to create a rock star or something.  Wow.  I just re-read my sentence and that made no sense at all.  I have the song stuck in my head today, though.

All right.  I'm an idiot.  It wasn't Colecovision.  It was the Atari 2600.

And the game was called Journey Escape:

Jamie doesn't.  Mind you, we don't really let him out of his cage very often.

Also, the Commodore 64 game I was referring to was called Lazy Jones.

Anyone else have a game tickling the edges of their memory?

Me and two other people at work spent a good half-hour trying to remember Word Rescue. It was insane; we could describe every aspect of it, but couldn't remember the damn name.

"So you're, like, a boy or a girl..."
"...rescuing letters, I think..."
"...worm drops slime on enemies..."
"...DOS game..."
"...man, what was it called?!"

And such and such.

What an awesome series of games that was.  Who would have thought that Broderbund would have such an addictive franchise on their hands?

Where did you go wrong?

All I know is that I spoke to her the other day and she keeps talking about how many kerchiefs you borrowed from her.

It wasn't me, but I do know I saw the actual culprit sailing away in a boat with a red and white flag.
