M mature game or series
1. Putt-Putt
Putt-Putt series by Humongous Entertainment
First appearance: Putt-Putt Joins the Parade (1992)
Based on: Putt-Putt Saves the Zoo (1995)
Height: 2'3" - 69 cm
From driver’s license shown by cheat for Putt-Putt Saves the Zoo
Reference: Humongous Entertainment Wiki - Fandom
Age: 7 years old*
Estimate. Based on expiration date of driver’s license (December 6, 1999) and Putt-Putt’s birthdate (September 9, 1992), Putt-Putt is younger than 8 years old. I have a headcanon that the license gets renewed every year like an annual doctor’s appointment for children.
Another headcanon: Putt-Putt is older than Pajama Sam (6 years old) and younger than Freddi Fish. In the scoreboard of Freddi Fish and Luther’s Water Worries, the main characters are listed in this order: Fatty Bear, Freddi Fish, Putt-Putt, Pajama Sam, Luther. I find this order interesting. It seems to be order of maturity. Also, his fish form, Jason, seems to be younger than Freddi.
Gender: Male
Species: Car
Birthday: September 9
From driver’s license
2. Moth
Creepy Castle (2016) by Dopterra
Height: 2'2" - 66 cm (without antennae) / 3'3" - 100 cm#
In the Ask Moth Tumblr blog (currently unavailable), Dopterra stated that Moth is a little over 2 feet tall without his antennae and a little over 3 feet tall (or one meter) with his antennae.
Age: 21 years old#
In the Ask Moth Tumblr blog, Dopterra stated that Moth is a young adult, “somewhere close to 21”.
I don’t think Moth knows his exact age. He doesn’t even know his real name.
Gender: Male
Species: Moth
Birthday: April 15
Stated in a tweet by Dopterra
Reference: Twitter
I don’t think Moth actually knows his birthday, either.
3. Vi (Violet)
Bug Fables: The Everlasting Sapling (2019) by Moonsprout Games
Height: 3'3" - 99 cm*
Vi would actually be about the same size as a real-life honeybee.
If the proportion of the bugs is the same as real-life people, I estimate her height to be about 4 feet tall. The height of tall bugs (like Zasp) seem to be the equivalent of 6 feet to me.
Though I kind of want her to be a small bean
Also the developer made Vi’s Mii really short. Not the shortest, but quite shorter than my human kid Miis.
Age: 17 years old#
One of the developers, Mar, states Vi is around 16-17 years old in the Bug Fables Discord server.

The box for Conker’s Bad Fur Day on the N64 states Conker is celebrating his 21st birthday bash.

Watt is an infant. She has a pacifier and refers to herself in third person in the Japanese version of Paper Mario

Apparently, she is still an infant in the sequels, Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door (unused sprite) and Super Paper Mario (group photo at beginning)
Gender: Female
Is referred as female overall. In the English Paper Mario, she is referred as female when she joins the team, in the main menu and in the Post Office. The male references in Paper Mario are likely mistakes for the Super Block upgrade. Same case for Super Paper Mario.
