It was a sports compilation. I remember darts, table hockey(?), bowling, arcade basketball, and maybe one or two other games.

It was for Windows 95, and was self-themed with vague hints of bar.

The important bit that I remember is that most of the games were top down; so for example in the darts game you would take hold of the virtual dart, which would change your cursor into it, and huck it over the line.

The less important bit I remember is the sounds being crunchy. Not garbled or compressed, just sharp and loud. There was definitely an "Ooooooh" crowd stock effect. I also seem to recall a loud buzzer if you tried to bowl over the line.

Other things: It wasn't a Romtech Galaxy of Games thing or an eGames thing either. Yes, I tried the Mobysearch, trying to reach the level of specificity is not easy, especially for a compliation sports game.

Maybe it's Indoor Sports by WizardWorks (1997)?

It's not on MobyGames, here is a copy on eBay and you can look up screenshots on Google (they are on some obscure sites with stolen software, so I won't post them here).

I do have to wonder how you managed to find this. Because that's exactly what it was.

Ha, nice I could help :P

At first I searched MobyGames and browsed dart games and bowling games. But there were too many of them and I couldn't filter them by year, only by theme. So then I started to google Windows 95 bar/pub games, with a little luck. Then I googled Windows 95 dart/bowling games and an eBay match helped, also there was an Amazon match of the very same game - after that I just googled screenshots and they kinda matched your description.

And that's all - I was just lucky with nice retail copies, which helped the most. But then, in the 90's games had to have a physical copy to be sold, so usually you're likely to find an used one on the web.

Of course, but look at the name. It's so vague.

Indoor Sports. Published by a third rate publisher among the likes of ValuSoft. :p

I can't even find videos of it.
