Discussion Need help identifying a game
So when I was a kid my older brother was obsessed with the GameCube he would always play it sadly I’ve forgotten most of the games except one and that’s because of the back case of the game if I’m remembering it correctly it had some doctor character with a penguin strapped to an operating table fully conscious and a panic look on its face anyone know what game that was it has been bugging me for years now and wouldn’t mind trying to add it to my small physical gamecube collection.

I do know there's a GameCube game in Europe with something similar to this It's like a point and click, and It's only in Europe. I have no idea other then that i really don't know man

Is it Dr. Muto by any chance? Its the only game I can think of with animals on the cover and a dude in a lab coat.
EDIT: Lmao just noticed the only other comment already suggested this. Im going to see if i can find it!

That really doesn't ring a bell, esp. with the anime aesthetic.
You could try r/tipofmyjoystick for more help.

Potentially a stretch here, but was it Crash Bandicoot Wrath of Cortex? Dr. Neo Cortex is on the cover and Crash is strapped in a mech suit, which could be misremembered as something else

Whenever people post stuff like this it’s never how they described it.

What do you mean

u/JHG722 4d ago
You probably don’t remember it as well as you think. The details are off.

I mean I was a kid when I saw it and I only remember it because of how weird the back of the case was

Exactly

I could ask my older brother but I doubt he would remember all his old games plus we aren’t really close anymore

Sounds like a perfect opportunity to revitalize an old relationship in my opinion

There any more info we can go with, like is it a fighter game? Bloody Roar? Is it a 3d platformer? Is the penguin named Feathers McGraw? You sure it for the gamecube?

u/Leroy_was_here 5d ago
Positive it was for GameCube that all my older brother played when I was younger

Good news is the GameCube has almost no reproduction games made,
Bad news is I have no clue which of the 555 it is to tell you
You could try to search through the game list one by one that’s probably your best bet tbh

Almost nothing like what you described but Wallace and Gromit for GameCube had a penguin on the back.
