I am pleased to say that Widgit's programs achieve their stated aims: to provide educational and entertaining programs for children aged two years plus.

This tape contains four programs, all of which loaded first time, were easy to operate, worked without any bugs, were user friendly and well idiot proofed. All programs used sound, colour and superb graphics - the animation on Count 100 was better than on some arcade-type Spectrum games!

Aimed at pre-school and infants plus age range, Count displays a random number of monsters and the child types in the correct number.

Count cats shows a random number of trains, elephants, cats and houses. The child has to input the amount of the type of object the computer chooses.

Rockets: up to four rockets with up to four spacemen in each appear. On entering the correct total of spacemen the rocket(s) take off.
