What game am I thinking of?

There's an old PC (Windows) game that was basically a collection of board games, in the setting of a cabin, of sorts, where there could be different weather and seasons outside.

It included checkers, chess, chinese checkers, backgammon, I think, and maybe a couple of others, but the whole point was that you're basically in a nice house with ambiance around the simple games. It had decent graphics for that, so it was probably early 2000s/2005ish?

Any idea what I'm thinking of?

Best answer: Pretty sure this is it.

That "Hoyle Classic Board Games" is exactly what I was going to fail to remember the name of.

I'm about 90% sure I got it in some kind of Sierra compilation bundle with "EcoQuest: The Search for Cetus" or something.

Yes - Hoyle Classic Board Games is definitely it. I remember the cabin thing. The Card Game one used it too, I think.

Response by poster: Dammit, that's it. I was searching around Hasbro instead of Hoyle. Thanks!
