Mixed-Up Mother Goose
DOS version
One of the best supposedly-educational titles I've ever played.
The Good
I really like this game... I played it on my XT when I was 8 or so, then got the CD-ROM rerelease (which is rather rare) with my 386 and played it again. It is an excellent game, great for kids like the one I used to be, with good graphics, good music, great premise and a couple of hours worth of gameplay. It's obviously aimed at children, because - quite frankly - no adult in his right mind would actually play it, but it fulfills its intended purpose quite well.
The Bad
The controls are horribly minimalistic (which is reasonable considering it's a kids' game) and the game just plays the same every time, so there's not really much replay value.
The Bottom Line
Still an excellent game I recommend for all parents (and yes, Jim, that includes you ;-))
