Candy Land (Windows, 1998) Gameplay

- Опубликовано: 6 сен 2024
- Another board game adaptation! And once again, just like with Chutes and Ladders, I got this game during its run as a General Mills cereal box prize. This is an alright adaptation, though very much a by-the-numbers one. The only real addition over the board game here is the inclusion of minigames based on locations found in the original game.
And, since the question will inevitably rise again -- no, I did not play this with three other players. Again, this game entirely depends on the luck of an RNG with no real player input involved. I felt it would be most interesting if I had the maximum amount of players around and would also bring about the highest likelihood that I would be able to show every board travel scene. And it all worked out indeed -- the only thing I missed out on was traveling the rainbow path. I even got all of the wild cards (which is what I call any of the pink cards with an icon that take you to a specific space) too which is neat. Speaking of, good heavens I forgot how much those cards can screw you over.
Through the latter half of the board game, especially after the first player reached the end, I turned off movies and just started rushing everyone across the board. It was late at night and I was sick of playing at that point, plus I was getting sick of watching everything slowly crawl by, and just wanted to be done. I then went back and showed off all the minigames. None of them are very intricate but you gotta be complete, right?
Hope you enjoy this walkthrough. I don't have much else to say.
I, Skeletor personally played countless hours of this game and loved it. I rate this game 10/10 bags of nostalgic popcorn.
I rate it 5 bags of popcorn and a soda
I never would have figured you to have such a "sweet tooth"!
That intro still touches my heart. Also loved making ice cream and feeding the whale. The toppings were hilarious.
I just remember the gumdrop dude that you could launch shit into the mountains
To be honest i love all of them
@@RyanGoutbeck seeing that cat on the gumdrop house reminds me of my late cat buster and the game with all the candy and animals is like witnessing a slice of heaven from long ago. Wish I knew then what I knew now about how about this world was going to get at this point in my life and wish I could freeze time 20 years ago and never look back
@@RyanGoutbeck yeah the most combat part of the game 😂
Reminds me of the actual good time of my life were the worst part back then was going to bed and missing staying up late playing as a child now … the only thing I look forward to is going to bed with all the shit in my life and the world going on. How ironic lol
I just have to say, thanks so much for the high quality upload of this gameplay. As lame as it might look compared to today's standards of visuals, the first person segments bring such vivid feelings of nostalgia for how magical this game felt to me as a kid.
"small" edit: it really warms my heart that I am not alone with how much of an impact this game had on them. This game's entire design (visuals, sounds, etc.) have genuinely had such a huge impact on me to this day, still inspiring me as a (very casual) artist and musician. I don't know it's just... so cool that there are others out there like me. I still come back from time to time to watch this video just to feel the magic, and I'm happy others do so as well. Have a fantastic day everyone
Genuinely touched my heart
Same
I completely agree with you. There’s just something about those first person segments that’s so mesmerizing and nostalgic.
I’ve never played this game before, but I can relate to the feeling I’ve had with other games I played as a kid. It’s amazing how you view games and other things in general as a kid. I feel like something’s missing as an adult.
I so had this CD-ROM! I got it in a cereal box and I loved going to Lord Licorice’s castle and turning the lights off on him! That was so funny!
My parent had the same thing we also got monoploy and scramble that way
My brother and I did that a lot too when we played. We'd also tickle the gumdrop dude and I think poke the lollipop girl too. So many good memories of CD ROMs.
this, freddy fish, pajama sam, tonka search and rescue and the game of life roms 🤌 cereal boxes were killing it back then
@@CaitlinxDavis yup, loved them all!
@@CaitlinxDavisYES!! Humongous Entertainment games were my childhood. When I found out you could get them all on Steam it was the best day ever.
I spent so much time on these mini games as a kid. Really happy to see this again.
Same here
I used to skip high school and play this when my depression was really bad. It made life bearable
Goodness man, I hope you're doing better. I can imagine it must have been an especially dark time. I'm glad you managed to push through to today.
Ok but literally me at 26 wishing I could skip work and play this just to feel happy 😪
this is something that will forever remain in my brain. I don’t think I will ever be able to forget it, the sounds, the visuals- the whole game from the gingerbread to loading screen is just embedded inside of me.
Omg... The fact that it shows you a cinematic of walking down the path...
I audibly gasped when blue had to go back the gingerbread area
I got this game in a cereal box as a kid and the imagery is deeply ingrained in my mind to this day! Nobody I’ve talked to has ever heard of this game
Same here! I also got this as a cereal box prize and I played it for so many hours as a kid on my family’s Windows XP computer. Good times.
I have no idea why this game suddenly popped into my head after 15+ years, but thanks for uploading this so I could relive a bit of my childhood.
I remember those walking animations used to blow my mind and also creep me out a bit (always felt incongruent with the rest of the game's style maybe).
It's funny to think that this game is still buried somewhere in my brain after all these years
I had leukaemia as a child, and played this game at the hospital all the time. So much nostalgia wow.
Omg really, No Way Same and Yes this is one of my favorite games, i would play in the play room or on my moms laptop at 3am in the hospital when i couldn't sleep or to escape the reality of all the needles and spinal taps etc i had to get soon... Wow so cool that someone else can relate! I do hope your doing well and congrates on being Cancer Free too!!!, i know how hard the journey can be. All the best to you and i wish you a beautiful healthy life my fellow survivor buddy :)
@@Brittney_-ef1wt this has to be one of the best replies I’ve ever gotten on RUclips. Thank you so much for your kind words, I can’t believe someone else experienced the same!! 💕 I hope all the same to you beautiful, congrats on being a survivor and I hope you have a wonderful life! 🥰

Leaving this here since harassing lord licorice was the most iconic thing for me.
Hahahahaha I totally forgot about this. Yes
My god the nostalgia. I remember playing this on my parents’ old Windows computer years ago when I was five.
Same !!
Lord Liquorice was my favourite character in this game as a kid,p. I thought he was so hilarious, and his castle was the coolest thing! 🏰
Mine too
I thought it was funny whenever you turned off the lights on him.
@@markdpane poking his eyes too
I dont want to be an adult anymore 😢
Me too. But im still young. Im on my 20s
You can play it as an adult.
yes I’d love to for a while set aside the kids’ things
but i don’t need stuff that’s too small for me though
That’s why I’ve given special permission to every now and then grow up
I honestly started crying man this was the best game 😭 the memories are high
the ice cream sea was always the best i spent hours there
this unlocked parts of my brain that I thought were fever dreams. but they’re real memories holy smokes! I remember it even tho I played only as a 4 year old
This along with the old Game Of Life CD-ROM were two of my favorites to play at my friend's house, so needless to say I was pretty hyped when I eventually got this one out of a box of cereal! Little me thought torturing poor Lord Licorice was the funniest thing ever.
My grandpa taught me how to use a computer at age 6 and I remember him getting all these fun games from cereal boxes 😂 they really need to start that again.. these games were amazing and fun and super magical to play! I loved playing Clue, candy land, monopoly, pyjama sam, putt putt fish and more! I wish they made the exact games but higher quality 🥺😭💖
I got this one in a cereal box, too! Playing Candyland is such a beloved memory.
They have some of these games available on steam now! I’m not sure of the quality, haven’t gotten around to downloading any yet, but they’re there!
Man I wish I could play these CD rom games just for nostalgia
You can.
@Your Redness Emulators exist, among other things.
Some games can work on Windows 10 if you are curious 👋
anything is possible
Gloppy used to haunt my nightmares instead of Lord Licorice. No idea why. Now going back to this game, I get happy vibes from everyone and nostalgic beyond belief!
0:28 - ImageBuilder also worked on Crayola: Make a Masterpiece, a PC game I remember playing when I was a kid.
Wow. I remember vividly playing this game in kindergarten on the computer during play time. So nostalgic
My childhood memories of this is so vivid. I remember the theme song and even sang it! The 3d game play made me want to cry tears of joy!!! 😭 it was so magical and I miss it so much.
Gingerbread plums: the troll used to weird me put when you tickled him, so I would just rapidly click him and watch him glitch out 😆. But he was still funny.
Candy cane forest: The lumberjack was so wholesome and wonderful! 😭 I loved how supportive he was of my music 😆. Definitely had a crush on him.
Licorice Castle: I used to be actually terrified to go in because of the "villain" mentality. I thought for sure something bad would happen. So I very timidly would click on things. However I loved the tiny vile that would turn red and black in the right bottom corner. When i saw that again my brain said, "small friend" 😆 so I guess that was the thing that was wholesome to me inside it. And I loved turning out the lights. Hearing him say he was scared of the dark made him more human to me.
Gumdrops: FREAKING GUMDROP MOUNTAIN!!! I HATED THAT PURPLE THING😱 the way he darted around the screen with that crazed look in his eyes gave me the Willie's 😵 but I adored the mountain its self! 😄 I loved giving him his color back. And also the red gummy cat that would appear. Loved that thing.
Gingerbread Cottage: The chocolate drop, pink drop, and purple flat candy things that grew on the tree is what I remember the most. I loved the chocolate rabbits eating everything. I dont remember changing the house much though.
Lollipop Forest: THE CHICK!!! THE FREAKING CHICK!! Forget about the lollipop game that you could only play so many times. The only thing I remember about that was the huge red smiley faces that creeped me out. But that chick I would feed so much!! 😭 it was baby, and it was so cute.
Ice Cream Sea: The whale😭😭😭 sweet precious baby that must be protected. I loved it so much. I always thought the queen was so beautiful and majestic, loved her hair. I never noticed how annoying her voice was though 😅 I would spend HOURS making different ice creams and sending them off into the sunset 😆 they were so pretty.
Molasses Swamp: 😨 ok I always thought it was chocolate. I was gonna say, "I dont remember much about this place, what was here?" And then I saw it and was like "😱 HOLY CRAP NOW I REMEMBER!!!" That glob thing was TERRIFYING!!!! The face he would make right before he changed shape!? And for some reason I always felt creeped out and gross over there. Like Major creeper get the heck out of here videos. The freaking chocolate bars blinking at the bottom, it was like they were saying, "bru run..." not to mention the gummy bears committing suicide into the pond 😭 it was all sketchy as heck...
All in all this game holds so many memories dear to me. These guys were my friends that I would love to visit. Thank you for preserving this memory ❤
I think I literally had all the same thoughts as you as a kid! The Ice Cream Sea was 100% my favorite and I loved scaring the liquorice guy. Except I think I found the molasses guy super funny
Yes! It is so magical in my head as well! I loved this game so much as a kid
They just made the 2020 candyland competition show hosted by Kristen Chenoweth and I was so surprised they didn’t use or play the theme song in this game or even have any of candy lands characters. It was lacking for me because of the memory of this game!
Omg I’m getting so much nostalgia...I played this as a kid 🥺🥺🥺
Oh my gosh I literally played this game in pre school. Watching it on RUclips now feels so surreal
THE NOSTALGIA. FORGOT ABOUT THIS GAME COMPLETELY UNTIL TODAY
I loved this game! Back when cereal box prizes were cool! 🥰 Making ice cream was my favorite part! But so was the lollipop one! ❤️
The nostalgia!! This game is truly special to me because I would replay it so many times as a kid. The first person segments are still so cool to see, even as a young adult. Thank you so much for letting me relive my childhood!
Trust me, if you've seen the movie, Wreck-it Ralph, you don't want to rescue King Candy.
Don't think I didn't notice the ring sound effect from the Sonic the Hedgehog games at 1:58.
As well as the Mr Crabs walking sound from SpongeBob soon after that
@@niclinker619 ylu mean @ 2:07
Did everyone else get their copy with a box of cereal?
yes!!!
Can you believe someone tried to make a movie out of this? I say "tried to make" because it wasn't very successful.
I forgot how much I laughed as a kid when tickling plumpy
I have never been in such awe at a game play before. Bring back so many great memories. Thank you
*makes her house look like absolute shit*
“oh! that’ll spruce it up, yes!”
I seriously spent countless hours playing this game. I loved playing HP Pavillian running on Windows 95
I had this game as a kid and played it for hours! Alongside the Thomas And Friends, Reader Rabbit, and JumpStart PC games. This game always come to mind whenever I hear the ring sound from the Sonic games
I had this game but I played it for the first time in either 2003 or 2004 on my family’s original Microsoft Windows 98 PC. I miss that old computer.
was anyone else super invested in who would win. Green kept getting absolutely smacked this whole game
holy shit yellow just got sent back to the start. I'm on the edge of my seat non ironically
Stopppp I remember playing this game when I was younger and I played this game for hours. I miss my childhood
The nostalgia almost took me out can I PLEASE have my childhood back!!🥹😂
I started whistling this tune at work today not realizing where it was from. So much nostalgia😭❤️
I heard the ring sound effect in here first LONG before I found it in Sonic. Pretty shameless, ripping it like that.
I am tripping out, every time I hear it LOL
@@RosheenQuynh I also just realized the BGM is a rendition of the famous World War US Army anthem "Over There"
@@Mnemoniforma9.00 I wouldn’t know 😅
I’m surprised sega didn’t sue hasbro
Right? That is totally Sonic's ring
@@TheWolfGuardians Yup
I wonder if maybe they both bought it from the same sound effect library
Ahhh yess! Spent so much time on this game..especially the ice cream part😍 Thank you for the upload.
am i the only one who thinks the alien portrait at 40:47 looks like piccolo from dragon ball im in tears over this what is he doing here
Blue got absolutely wrecked at 23:10
OMGG that song! I still remembered all the words, but “Plumpy” lowkey scared me so bad as a kid.. 😂
3:36 Sonic Ring Sound Effect
Sonic... THE HEDGEHOG?!?!
29:20 I love how even Lord Licorice is there along with everyone else to congratulate the player even though he’s the one who kidnapped the king.
This is so nostalgic it hurts
Jesus christ this is scratching at a deep memory
I love the surreal late '90s 3d animation
this was my childhood and i’m SO grateful people recorded play throughs so i can have nostalgic memories
I loved this game as a kid. Had such a crush on Mr. Mint lol. The little movies captured my imagination. I used to write short stories that took place in the candy forests.
When he tickled the peppermint guy 😂😂
His name is mr mint
@@skunkman9815 Also the narrator of the game
35:27 plumpy is the last of his kind? that's a little depressing for a kid's board game...
This brings back childhood memories playing this game with my sister and my cousin
This game turned into a stress test in the end 😅 always so close just to go all the way back
This brings back so many good memories. I used to play in all the different character’s places for hours. Somehow I’m gonna find a way to play it on a free download or buy a used version, since mine is scratched, and relive my childhood someday
Thank you for sharing this treasured memory!! My preschoolers are watching while acting it out real-time on the physical Candyland board. 😄
Thank you for uploading this, I use to play this all the time incredibly nostalgic
I have dreams where I'm in candy land to this very day
I recently got all my old cdroms including this installed on a windows 98 laptop i got from ebay a while back. Always fun to go back to the old childhood games every once in a while 😋
I forgot that’s what computers were like back then😍😍😍😍😍😍
This is the oldest pc game I remember playing. I think it's so cool I can find a playthrough of this game because I could barely remember what it looked like. Thanks for uploading this.
1:56 I'm surprised that they got away with using the Sonic Ring sound effect for selecting the space.
56:55 does anyone know why it says special thanks Special Agent Dale Cooper. That’s the detective’s name in the 1990 show Twin Peaks. I used to play this game so much when I was a kid and once I finished it my mother saw that special thanks and she told me about it later when I had watched the show and we’ve both been wondering since what a kids game has to do with Twin Peaks.
Most likely, Cooper was so charming and lovable that it helped the dev team with the creation of this game. It's so cool to see this here! It's as if Candyland is part of the White Lodge.
board games, computer games, old school games, playground games, sport games, arcade games, video games
Yup they’re games alright
I used to LOVE this PC game as a kid, but it would always end up crashing and I would get so upset. 😂
I used to have this game too, i kinda miss it, it was a lot of fun
As a kid, I played too much Candy Land. Alot. And actually beat my mom most of the time.
Also, do I mentioned that Sega should have sued Hasbro for stealing the Sonic Ring sound effect?
I beat my mom at Monopoly
From what I understand, that noise is in the public domain. Gas station cash registers also make the noise these days
the nostalgia😩 i remember i only wanted to play the girl ones so all i did was make sundaes and lollipops, and plant seeds😭
i remember playing this game while my parents were in a heated argument and telling me to pick which parent i wanted to live with. LOL.
looking back, the gameplay doesn't seem fun at all. but i remember staring at the cutscenes and wishing i could be there instead. i still do that in games. it's weird how patterned thinking works.
thank you for the nostalgia trip!
This was such a sweet/sad response. I also remember trying to pretend I was there. I actually did that with a lot of the childhood games I played, and when I revisit them now I’m able to kind of take a break from the world and feel like a kid again. That’s why I love that people think to post these games for us to watch.
@@ricepuddin9 i feel the same!! it's a really nice feeling to revisit the games that i wanted to live in. these old games are almost impossible to run on new hardware, so it's great to come to youtube and celebrate the creators that can assist in making me feel 7 years old again!!
i hope you had fun on your nostalgia trip. you deserve the best!! sending you lots of love from this part of the interwebz!
42:01-42:51 turning off the lights was always hilarious when I played this game when I was a kid mommy where’s my special blankie lol 😂
Poor Yellow had a winning streak for itself until 13:40
Man yellow had the comeback of the CENTURY right there
the kid in me wants this redone so I can put it on my laptop 🤣🤣
The plumpy minigame was too funny
Isn't it, though? I mean, I like the fact that you could just keep tickling him for an unlimited amount of time, and the different things Plumpy said every time he tried to carry the three pies away but fell over doing so!
I remember this when I was a little child and my brother played this game in Phoenix.
Wow thank you for uploading this!! It brought back a lot of good memories, especially turning the lights off on Lord Licorice hahahah
I think we can all agree, the Ice cream sundae one was the most satisfying
I like how everything renders very well.
Oh my god I can’t this is the most nostalgic thing ever 🥲🥲
I have the weirdest memory with this game. I used to play this game a lot along with a bunch of the other old Hasbro Interactive games like The Game Of Life, Monopoly Jr, Mr Potato Head, and Sorry! To name a few and I remember one time when I went to play the game and put it in the computer and I don't know what exactly happened but somehow there was a problem with the disc and the last time I ever played it the disc COMPLETELY SHATTERED. I would guess there must have been a crack in the disc or I put it in wrong but it really sucked because as I said I used to play it a lot and then that happens and that must of been when I was 4 years old so while I loved this game I barely remember it so it's nice to finally see it again all these years later
I remember getting this game in my cereal box. I think my Mom eventually donated the disk, I couldn't find it anywhere.
Well I mean it's perfectly find to find it online as it's considered abandonware at this point
i was born in 2000 with six older siblings and we were obsessed with this game. it came in a box of cereal, back when cereal had toys!
A ring sound from the Sonic the Hedgehog was used in the PC board game
Even mr Krabs walking sound
I remember cracking up when making the green friend( I forget his name) fall into chocolate😂😂😂😂😂😂 and pouring water can in grandma instead of the flowers
I loved this game when I was three to five. If the board game was a cartoon in the 90's, here is my cast, courtesy of Ocean Group/DiC:
John the Candy Land Boy: Bill Switzer
Dawn the Candy Land Girl: Chantal Strand

I hope you find my choices fitting. And if you have a different cast for a 90's Candy Land cartoon, post it in this comment.
I want to play this soooo badly and it’s so unfortunate I can never play it ever again
I'm playing it on an old laptop running windows 98! It works great and still loads of fun! 😊💖
Oh man I used to play this so much. Bringing back so many memories
Gosh, I vaguely remember playing this game...
But what do you do when you want to leave?
Click the candy machine
I miss this game so much 😢 I can’t get it to work on a computer anymore
Tickle plumpy until your hand goes numb or until he pisses himself
I got this in a cereal box and loved playing it with my young kids, and even on my own after they went to bed. 😂 The movies made my POS PC break down, though, lol.
Omg I remember this haha 😂 I loved it and played it quite a lot actually
Played this all the time as a kid. Thanks for the upload
