/vr/ - Retro Games

Alright. There was this one game back in the windows 98 days that I remember had similar gameplay as Spy vs Spy.
The split screen was the same.
Had the same gameplay mechanic of setting traps for the other player.

I think there were multiple enemy npcs simultaneously.

Each character was different. not just a palette swap like Spy vs Spy.

I remember one character was a blonde woman and another was a detective looking guy in a trench coat and hat.

The characters were short and cartoony.

The game was 2d same as spy vs spy with the screen acting as the 4th wall.

16 bit looking graphics

Not sure if it was in DOS or Windows.

The version I had as a kid was broken. It would randomly crash in 3-5 minutes after launch.

I remember even writing down the name when I was a kid so I could find it when I grow up.

Never found the paper with the name or a screenshot in all these years.
