My parents somehow ended up with one of these when I was like 3. We weren't exactly rich so I've always wondered if it fell off the back of a truck or something. The only games that come to mind are a word scramble and an overhead racing game. Pretty sure we had a few more but that was a loooooong time ago.

One thing I learned from growing up in a not too well of family, is that things that fell off a truck, never actually fell off a truck.

Interestingly, we use the same “excuse” in Dutch! (van een vrachtwagen gevallen)
