This was an edutainment game from when I was a kid. I don't remember much, except I think a witch was involved at some point, but anyway the graphics were pretty pixly, so it wasn't one of those more modern games that look like a cartoon on TV; and the background music was "House of the Rising Sun," almost certainly without the copyright. Also, I remeber seeing a castle or mansion from the side all the time, as in the camera was fixed, not changing the angle or moving to the side. You played by solving maths problems or spelling or something, but while you had a character that was "you", I don't think you moved him around or anything like that. You just solved math problems and spelling stuff.
EDIT: I'm almost 100% the system was Windows. I first played the game in 1994 or 1995.
