The VG Resource

Hi Everyone, really sorry this is probably the wrong section to post this question but I really have no clue where it could go on this site,
I just wanted your advice on wheither these screenshots of an old windows 3.1 game I used to play by Sierra called Spelling Blizzard or Yobis Spelling Tricks, was done with PixelArt or image on a image editing program in that time(late 90s I guess) , the reason I ask is because I would love to do similar top-down animated sprites and a character like the mascot shown in the image(who talks in the game and moves his stick), I don't want to replicate the game characters just I love that style of game graphics shown their.

Thanks for any help, please let me know if I posted in the wrong section.

I don't know why you expect any of us to know that, none of us worked on the games in question or took said screenshots.
