Price: $19.99 USDescription:
Freddy's Treasure is a 7 (yes, seven) screen interactive storybook featuring Freddy the Fish. The goal of this title is to help children recognize money. Unfortunately, the money appears only on one page of the story and there are no games or supportive activities - click on a coin and a .wav file runs to name the coin, then a box pops up with the coin name written in it. That's IT!! No games, no nothing, NADA. There is a page of characters, click on one and it plays a song as it dances. AVOID! There are many shareware products on the market offering much more content.
Notes:
Installation was difficult; it does not support Win95 Autoplay. The title ran slowly on our Pentium 100. We were unable to install successfully to our 486/66. The graphics were very simplistic.
Features:
Seven screens of the story, music clips and sound effects.
