Alternatively, which games you played as a kid - and were meant for your age category - messed you up as a child because it had scary or content inappropriate for a children's game?
When I was young I used to play an educational game called Forestia which was meant for children of 7 to 9, and which generally taught you about ecology in European forests. It had talking trees and a bunch of talking animals but it also had one level where you'd go into a dark alternative timeline/dreamlike sequence which had imagery such as this one:
Let me just say, I was an anxious eight year old - and an equally anxious adult - and this level was one of my worst nightmares.
Another example of things that messed with me - and which is now very laughable to me - were the ghosts in Freddi Fish 2.
