This is an educational program described as being suitable for four to eight year olds, although I would find it hard to imagine that it would retain the interests of children over seven.

The computer draws a picture of a boy, girl and dog in a field. Their clothing and other items in the field are assigned colours. After a description whilst the picture is drawn, questions are asked on what colour an article is.

If the answer input is correct, then a sweet is drawn in a box. When ten questions have been answered, the colours change and the questions are asked again. When 20 sweets fill the box, the game ends.

Although great care has been taken to redefine a complete character set so that questions and statements are written in lower case lettering, the answers need to be entered in upper case. This is because typing with the alpha lock off causes the stems of letters to be omitted, making orange appear as "oranae".

Also a problem on my TV was trying to distinguish the colours of smaller items.
