This is an updated version of Roberta Williams' Mixed-Up Mother Goose. This version utilizes Sierra's SCI game interpreter and features enhanced graphics and sound. The gameplay remains the same as the previous version; all of the nursery rhymes in Mother Goose Land have become mixed up! Your goal is to set things straight by locating missing items for each of the fairy tale characters in the land. When wandering around the land you can talk to the different characters (each from a different nursery rhyme) to find out what item it is they need; for example, Little Bo Peep is looking for her sheep and Jack Be Nimble lost his candle stick. The items are scattered about the land, and when you locate one pick it up and return it to the appropriate character. When successful, the complete nursery rhyme will play with the lyrics appearing on screen. You can only carry one item at a time, so you may need to remember where you spotted or dropped items not being carried! Also, each time the game is played objects will be in a new location. Included with the game is a map of Mother Goose Land which may help you locate the different fairy tale characters. Read less

This is basically Winnie the Pooh in the Hundred Acre Wood remade with the King’s Quest engine to satisfy Roberta Williams’ passion fort myths, fables and legends. But there’s another difference: Winnie the Pooh was incredibly boring, while Mother Goose is fun. Why? Well, the graphics and the musics are lovely and the sense of humour is really on point. …

This is basically Winnie the Pooh in the Hundred Acre Wood remade with the King’s Quest engine to satisfy Roberta Williams’ passion fort myths, fables and legends. But there’s another difference: Winnie the Pooh was incredibly boring, while Mother Goose is fun. Why? Well, the graphics and the musics are lovely and the sense of humour is really on point. It animates in a literal way the delirious lyrics of traditional folk songs and there’s some batshit crazy stuff. It’s just an hour of gameplay and it’s lovely to go through it. But still, I didn’t try to play it with my daughter. I think we had more fun with Zack & Wiki.
