Early Example of that 90s DOS Look & Sound I Have So Much Nostalgia For

Preliminary: A game I always wanted to play because it was talked about in my Treasure Galaxy! game, but didn't have access to. Without nostalgia for the actual game, we will see what I think of it. Especially since I read there is a lot of delay to the controls.

I got my first Treasure how many am I supposed to get? I lovvvvve that this truly looks like a 90s DOS game. Something about the colors gets me so excited for Humongous Entertainment era , esp that blue of the UI enter image description here

Welp, even tho I did not play it to the end it's a game that has instant nostalgia and coziness and doesn't deserve just a 2 star and pass off. I got the key twice and figured it's time to move on.

Look: 8.5/10 Truly harkens the 90s DOS era I have so much nostalgia for

Sound: 8/10 Nothing spectacular but again, very 90s DOS tunes

Play: 7.5/10 One of the better edutainment adventure games. Simple enough but complex enough, with an excellent Help function. However, it wasn't enough to hold my adult self's interest haha.

Feel: 8/10 Great Feel, would be bolstered if I had nostalgia for it or if the tunes were even better.

Attachment: 7.5/10 How often I replay games of this nature is questionable, without nostalgia for it. But it's a great edutainment game and a great start to the 90s DOS era. And it's one I wont forget, being an early entry in a series I so adore.

Overall: 7.9/10

Completion: 2 keys

Playtime: ~ 20 mins

One of my first childhood games. I remember enjoying the action gameplay and the music. Supposedly this was educational? I don’t remember that part.
