Help remembering a game with an Elephant and a Dragon

Post by RoseTintedSpectrum »

My descriptions on this are vague, I know it exists because I remember seeing it again recently and then immediately forgetting what it was because I'm like that.

My only memories of the game are: You were a (blue?) Elephant, it was an adventure style game - I think possibly aimed at kids, but I'm not sure - and one of the screens featured an absolutely massive Dragon that filled up a good 50% of the top of the screen. That's pretty much all I remember of it.

Bloody hell, I just typed my description into Google and instantly found it. I'm a moron.

Riddler's Den, if anyone was interested.

Um, he's not Jim Donaldson. I'd say his actual name, but I think a boy scout in Dartford taught us all what he should be called.
