How to find arcade game where a rich baker saves girl from feral dog[edit]

I am looking for the name of the arcade game where a rich baker (specifically one that makes flour) saves a girl from a feral dog. I know that the arcade game also has the element of a strict time limit in it. DrangonJ (talk) 00:35, 10 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I can't find any information on your specific game, but it sounds like a Donkey Kong clone. In the early 1980s, following the success of the original Donkey Kong, a bunch of companies produced blatant rip-offs of the Donkey Kong format. I can't find a specific one where Donkey Kong is turned into a feral dog and Mario into a baker, but it seems entirely possible given the sheer number of these types of games. Google "Donkey Kong clone" and see if any jog your memory. --Jayron32 12:50, 10 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Someone that makes flour would be a miller rather than a baker, if that would help your search. -- Verbarson  talkedits 18:18, 10 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
