Aimed at children, but trickier than it seems. Actions are only selectable if possible, though there's no clue as to why something (typically leaving the location) may not be allowed. A bit of trial and error usually sorts that out. The game is credited to the Kaos team (the former Softstone) as a whole. Many programmers were part of it, including David Aubrey Jones, Tony Cooper or Grant Harrison, so it's anybody's guess who coded the different versions.
