I'm trying to remember the name of a PC game that I played when I was a kid, probably in the late 90s or early 2000s. It had a cartoonish style and involved some kind of adventure, possibly set in a lab or space environment. I recall parts where vampires would pop out of coffins, making it feel a bit spooky. It might have had educational elements too. If anyone has a clue about what game this could be, I'd appreciate your help!

If you're really stuck, try asking on r/tipofmyjoystick. There are lots of experts there who can help you find exactly what you're looking for!
What about 'I.M. Meen'? It’s another classic from that era with a spooky vibe and some adventure elements. The game had a lot of memorable goofy moments.
You might be thinking of the 'Jump Start' series. There was a version that had a spooky theme aimed at the 4th-grade level, though it didn't have the space theme. It was all about fun learning!
Or could it be the original 'Duke Nukem'? It's a bit of a stretch from your description, but it has that retro charm and some quirky spooky elements.
Hey, could it be the game 'Addy Math'? It was designed for kids and had various levels that involved solving puzzles and doing math in a fun way. The visuals are quite cartoonish, which fits your description. You can check it out on Amazon if you're interested!
That sounds like it! I remember playing something similar where you'd have adventures and learn at the same time.
Yes! I think Jump Start had a couple of different themes, but the spooky one sounds familiar.
