I've actually posted this same description in a few different threads on different boards, but here it goes again!

I remember this old NES game I rented once when I was a youngin'. All I can remember is controlling a little ball or something and travelling between rooms. I specifically remember one of the rooms having a big face boss of some sort, and you had to jam the ball in his eye to win.

And it's not Marble Madness.
I'm probably driving right now.

Have you played Dragon Tales: Learn & Fly With Dragons or are you just judging without playing it?!

I actually played this game ages ago when I didn't even know Dragon Quest existed and I liked it?!(we're talking early 2000 here)

I have a faint memory of one dos game, or at least I think it was a dos game. It was like a mini golf game and played a little like one of these games where player controls ball with the mouse.

I remember the graphics were very pixelated, strong in colors, and without any shading or outlines. The background was dark. The game had some moving walls, and enemies. One of the stages looked like it had a 2d image of the earth or mars in the middle with one bouncing enemy ball. The player had to move from one side of the screen to the other to get to the goal.

Each stage was only one screen in size as far as I remember and they often filled the whole screen. The levels did not have any height or other things controlling the movement of the ball.

Gonna make two guesses, but I can't think of anything quite like what you're describing.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bg86-XRjUE8 - Smart Ball (SNES)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QCxjQGhn1TE - Armadillo (NES)

Probably neither of those, I reckon.

Not sure if it will help, but this guy is currently working through every NES / SNES / Genesis game out there. He's only roughly half way done, but I've managed to re-discover a couple of games I couldn't find the name of by following his youtube channel.

there was this one educational game for kids i played back in elementary school (so 97? 98? 99?) that was a math game and the only thing i remember about it was the final level which was a bunch of tiles on top of a volcano, and you had to answer the math questions right to cross the tiles or else they'd fall into the lava below.

which was really gruesome now that i think about it but that's the game.

yeah i don't think anyone will know it but it's worth a shot.

I remember playing this one Wii game where you had robots that followed you and you could set them to three different positions: following, wide, and surrounding. I remember the game was puzzle/platformer/action. I think the robots were white and orange.

I vaguely remember playing this BBC edutainment computer game. For a final level, it also had a bunch of tiles, but you were on a castle rampart and a wizard was dropping the tiles on you.

Oh wow, that's it! I've looked off and on for that game for years. Doesn't look quite how I remember it, but that's definitely it.
