Sounds like Olli & LIssa 3: The Candlelight Adventure, maybe?

Pssst was one of the first games I played, along with the Horace ones :D That and a game whose name is lost in the mists of time but it had a wizard and an apple on the front of a silver insert - it was pretty much what I understand Dig Dug to be except you could undermine apples as opposed to rocks to block passages and crush enemies, all done to can-can music of course :lol:

Ack, I hate that game. Is the damn thing even possible to finish? Seems to me like you have to scour EVERY single bit of ever screen with the magnifying glass, and if you're not standing in EXACTLY the right position then it doesn't register that Olli's found the car piece. I must've wasted a good few hours of my life on that crap before giving it up as a bad idea.

Shame, as I loved the first Olli & Lissa.
