Hazey Memories

For programs I/people remember, but can't find.

Kinda similar to World Builder, but on Windows 3.1

I'd gotten it from a magazine I also can't remember the name of. Barely a magazine, really ; I folded piece of cardboard ~A3, with a demo CD. Each issue would have a genre-based theme, and would be stuffed with mostly applicable shareware. I had an RPG one, and an adventure game one.

By 'similar to World Builder, I mean in the sense that it was an adventure game making tool with multiple windows (but it was colour), and replaced World Builder's Macyness with a Windowsynes ; (explain)

I remember some of the items, like a yellow key, and also remember there was at least one example game included

Things to investigate more

Machination (company) - Made PAGE (Platform Adventure Game Engine), and maybe others
http://gdata010.tripod.com/engines.htm - so many dead links, particularly
- Adventure Game Builder Utility
- Adventure Gamer 'easy-to-use, full-featured toolkit that lets you create board mazes with items to find and use, characters to interact with [Windows 3.1+]'
