You guys just solved a game I had been trying to remember for over a decade (Tootsville!), so I’m back with what may be an even more obscure one.

I actually played this game repeatedly as a kid, but unfortunately I remember almost nothing about it.

What I remember:

It was a 2D computer game, probably PC/browser.
I’m guessing it was from roughly 2005-2010, possibly around the same time as Club Penguin, Webkinz, ToonTown, etc.

The world was populated by anthropomorphic animals who stood upright. I assume the player characters did too.

I remember the overall setting having a strong Old West/frontier vibe.

The one character I can distinctly picture was a fox NPC, possibly light/orange colored.

I believe he ran a shop where you could buy things, possibly things used in minigames.

He wore a jeweler’s loupe/magnifying lens over one eye. This is probably the clearest visual detail I have.
I think he was specifically a jeweler, or at least his shop involved gems/jewelry.

I have no idea what the game’s actual objective or gameplay was anymore.

The art style was definitely 2D/cartoonish, but I unfortunately couldn’t identify it if you showed me ten screenshots. I’m hoping a name will help me identify this and end the burning questions I’ve had over these games for years.

I realize this is an absolutely terrible amount of information to work with 😂, but the fox with the jeweler’s loupe is burned into my memory.

Any ideas?

I’m trying to identify an obscure children’s online game/virtual world I remember from the early 2000s. I never actually played it, but I remember encountering it online during the same period as Webkinz, Club Penguin, and Toontown.

It was a browser-based virtual world, and I believe there were physical plush toys that could be entered/registered in the game, similar to Webkinz. I never saw the plushes in stores in the U.S., so I suspect the game may have been Australian, British, or otherwise international and never really released in the United States.

The game was centered around anthropomorphic elephants. The elephants were 2D, brightly/fantastically designed, and stood upright on two legs.

The character I remember most clearly was an NPC named Props. He was an elephant with propeller designs all over his body. I vaguely remember him being light brown/gray and possibly wearing aviator/pilot clothing.

I remember him saying something approximately like “If it lifts, I can fly it” and I believe he had an Australian-sounding accent. The exact quote may be wrong.

I recall wanting the Props character/plush as a kid, but I don’t think he was actually available as one of the plushes. He may have been an NPC.

The game was probably around 2006–2009, although it may have survived into the early 2010s.

Does anyone else remember this game? Or was it just me?
