Timon And Pumbaa's Jungle Games

Family CD-ROMs are normally pretty awful. This one is different. It's been animated by real Disney artists, giving it an excellent cartoon look, and all the sounds are totally authentic. The main menu screen is packed with hidden items for a start, meaning that wherever you click the mouse on-screen, something happens!

There are four main games to play, each one playing like a "proper" game - Pinball, Space Invaders, Puyo Puyo and Virtua Cop. Well, sort of. They are very basic, meaning that children can learn to play them quickly, but can get pretty tricky later on!

This package isn't going to be much use to "grown-ups" but it's excellent for very young children to start playing video games.
