This is an amazing gem of a game. Really hiding the learning in a fun and interesting way. Cant remember how many hours I spent in front of the screen with this game. But the best part is that everyone in the family enjoyed the game as well. Even my grandparents could enjoy sitting down with me as a child playing this "computer game" as they would say.
my mom bought this for my sister and I and we played it for years. It was one of our favorite pc games. Ive still got it but no pc to play it on. Ive tried everything to get it running locally. Tried to get it on MiSTer, even considered buying or building a retro pc. Be nice if i could just play it on a modern one though.

So many different types of puzzles that were all so fun. For a "kid" game, the different difficulties you could choose could become really hard, even for an adult!

I used to spend hours playing this game, it was one of the first games I played that came in CD ROM, and first game I played with voices! Basically taught me how to speak English. The puzzles were very creative, never played anything like it since. It's impossible to run this game on modern machines, believe me, I tried so much!

One of the games that came with our first family PC, me and my brothers spent countless hours figuring out the puzzles despite hardly knowing any English at the time. I haven't played it in a long time since these days running the game is very difficult, but I'd love to see an updated version compatible with modern systems on GOG one day to relive the nostalgia.
I just want to say that this is an educational/entertainment game, better known as an edutaiment game but it is so well executed that you don't realize you're learning because you are having SO much fun. I played this on my 486 SX25 for hours. My parents had to call me to supper several times because I'd yell back, "One more minute!" like 10 times! The voice acting in this game is superb. This game is amazing!

This game was so amazing and instilled in me a love of puzzles that I still have to this day. Almost any game I download on my phone is similar to one of the puzzles. I remember playing this game and challenging my brother to see who could complete more. I was hoping to be able to download it for my daughter to play but it's pretty difficult to find. It would be amazing if this was on GOG!

Another game that instantly transported me back to being a kid. It's tougher and tougher to accomplish these days as the years are piling on. This game travelled me through time to an age where everything was simple, except for the puzzles.

Like the previous entries, Silent Hill 3 is a survival horror combining action-based combat and puzzle-solving, but is somewhat more combat-oriented than the preceding installments. The main character is able to side-step and block some attacks, but in general shares with the other protagonists of the series their relative ineptitude in combat.

Discworld
DiscworldDiscworld is a game released for PC (subsequently Mac, and Playstation) by Teeny Weeny / Perfect 10 studios in 1995. The game was released both on floppy disk and CD-Rom. The latter featured a commentary team created of many veterans of famous Brit-Coms. This included Monty Python's Eric Idle, Radio 4's (later to be more famous) Rob Brydon, ex- Doctor Who John Pertwee, 70s pop singer Kate Robbins, and Blackadder star Tony Robinson. The game is a riff on the Discworld title 'Guards, Guards', however many elements of the text have been shifted, not least the inclusion of Rincewind as protagonist. The game featured puzzles which were considered far too difficult and obtuse for gamers of the time, but the game itself has had a lasting legacy, now being accepted into such emulators as SCUMMVM.
