Summary: Childhood Memories
Comment: I can remember playing this game and others by the same company as a child and this was one of my favorites. Granted this game is a bit antiquated when compared to all the new software out there, but it helps children to learn and excel in problem solving.

Comment: on the cover it may say that the ages are 5-9 but my kids are 12, 18 and 23 and they all still play it.
yes it might be old but everytime you play it, it gets more fun and exiting.

Summary: Great educational and Fun
Comment: My son started playing the Treasure Mountain when he was 4. I think it really helped in his math development. The game is setup so that the child does many things and then is given something at the top of the mountain. This motivated my son to play and play.
I'm buying it again for a young nephew to give him an advantage in math.

Summary: Very old but educational game
Comment: The game was probably developed around 1996 - 1997. Graphics is poor compared to current educational games. It's jewel case states compatibility for Win 95, 98 and ME.

We were not able to install it on an laptop with Win XP. It kept looking for a specific file for our video and sound card. But installation on a Win 2000 SP4 desktop went smoothly.

The game is designed to run in 256-colors at 640x480. It will run on higher colors but the graphics won't look good. For current systems, you need to change Display Modes before or during playing the game.

Game play is 2-dimensional. Do not expect any 3D animation. But the educational value is great. There are multiple choice quizzes about rhymes, numerical order, similar sounds, ending with same letter, etc. It also involves shapes, numbers and properties (color, big, etc.)

Overall, the game has good educational value, but if you expect something truly interactive or 3D, you will be disappointed.

Summary: These are very fun!
Comment: These games are very fun because it's a game of strategy and a lot of work! I think you should play this game because it's fun going into caves to find pufferfish and gems and getting on different levels, which means getting different treasures. It's fun to go back and see your treasures any time you want. And I like listening to the music and trying to avoid the gobberfish.
