zeogold: I was just struck with a childhood memory of a game, and have been looking up random search terms on the internet to try and find it again for the last hour or so.
I remember it being an adventure game of some sort, with pictures in the middle and text of what was going on over on the side. The character on the title screen was this big green dragon that I think had glasses (although I could be wrong on this). It was written in a storybook/fairy tale type of style/setting, but I don't remember what the goal was. Pretty sure it was a kids' game. Could've been educational, for the purpose of building reading skills, perhaps? Judging by what I remember of the graphics, it was made sometime in the 90s or early 2000s. Seemed to be aimed at around ages 8 and up.
This is a vague description, I know, but maybe you guys are old enough to have seen it and help me out here,

Geralt_of_Rivia: Have you checked out Eric the Unready? It is an adventure and not a RPG. And its humour might make you think it is a kids game even though it isn't.

I desperately HOPE this isn't a kids' game.

sunshinecorp: Are there better toys than the ones depicted thusly?

zeogold: Nope. It's looking more like what I had in mind, though.

zeogold: Nope, none of that. Seems to be getting in the ballpark, though.

zeogold: I think Jack and the Beanstalk were one of the fairy tales/some of the characters involved, but I'm not sure. It did have some sort of fantasy theme.
