... Tonka Construction...

Anyway, I've played so many 'learning games' that I don't know of any others, a whole batch came on my mother's hewlett packard, from some game where you harpooned stuff in the amazon and found stuff like fruit... to a game where ice blocks of math would be sliding off the screen and you had to answer the problem before it left (or something?)... to a match game involving snowballs 0.o

MoO - Master of Orion ?
WC II - Warcraft 2 ?

These came a bit after my age.... in an age when we'd get new games by exchanging 1.4MB diskettes...

MoO was 1993, Warcraft was 1994 and the sequel WCII 1995... all of this before the noted 1997. Sim Ant was 1991.

Doom was 1993. Either Doom came after your age, or you simply missed a number of solid titles for DOSBox.

Well then, I must have missed them at their prime-time... and when they did come by, I didn't pay them any mind.

You guys remember rick dangerous?
Gobliiins? (yes, 3 i's)
lemmings?

Gobliiins and all of its sequels suck.

Lemmings is meh.

Master of Magic is awesome. Civilization is awesome. Sim city.

Even old floppy disk games like Pax Imperium Heart

No, i find it rather more satanic that we're all into different things.
