Fox Kids Kinder Spiele: Volume 2

Fox Kids Kinder Spiele: Volume 2 is a collection of casual 'Shockwave' games that play in a browser window on the player's computer. The games play directly from the CD, require no installation and do not record any high scores on the hard drive. Although the title is in German the games have instructions in English, French, German and Spanish.
The games in this compilation are grouped into categories, they are:

• Shoot' em up:

  • Fair: is based on the fairground game of throwing bean bags at piles of cans on a shelf. The bean bag moves back and forth across the bottom of the screen. Clicking the mouse stops it moving and builds up power for the throw, releasing the mouse initiates the throw.
  • F-toon8: is a vertical scrolling space shooter.
  • La Vacamata: help a cow fight mad cow disease! Green blobs of the disease descend from the top of the screen and the player must prevent them from reaching the floor of the dairy by shooting them. However when they are hit the virus splits, and splits ..., only the smallest blobs can be killed.
  • Mr Hammer: a button mashing game based on the fairground test your strength game. The player presses the mouse key as often as possible within a fixed time, this swings the hammer and generates a score.
