Muppet Treasure Island
Ahoy, Muppet fans and fanatics! Muppet Treasure Island, the CD-ROM adventure is out. This is a children's adventure game. Some of us just don't outgrow Muppets and so will take them in whatever form we can. In the game are Kermit (Captain Smollett), Gonzo the Great (Gonzo), Rizzo the Rat (Rizzo), Fozzy Bear (Squire Trelawny), and the non-muppets in the game are Billy Connelly (Billy Bones) and Tim Curry (Long John Silver).
This is a funny (and not too involved) adventure game. The game is divided into four parts. In each part, there will be a number of tasks for you to do. The tasks are fairly simple, and it shouldn't take much practice for any youngster to get the hang of each of the little games. The game is based on the Muppet Treasure Island movie. It isn't necessary to have seen the movie to play the game, but if you haven't seen the movie and you're over the age of about 12, you're probably not a devoted enough fan to play this game.
If you have seen the movie, the good news is that the dialogue and most of what happens in the game are new to the game, not merely recycled movie pieces. Sample bits of dialogue would be "So you likes Mr. Arrow do ya? Tell ya what, you can have a drumstick," After a brief fanfare, Long John Silver rolls his eyes and mutters "I thought I told those guys to take care of the band!" as he exits. "Tweak his nose, that sounds like fun. Do mine next." Gonzo the Great.
Many objects to click on in the game. Different ones have different effects, and many will do different things each time you click on it. Do be sure to run through all the things Billy Bone's mother has to say, it's a scream. In fact, it is vital to do some things in the game multiple times. Otherwise, you may have problems at the end. Three times seems to be the charm for most of the items that I played with.
Never be afraid to experiment. You just never know what might happen. Such as ringing for Long John Silver before the pie is filled with apples. One of the two results is a *real* killer. Look up in the sky after your first astronomy lesson and get a second. Another must-do is go to Squire Trelawny's at least once before you get a suit of new clothes. The line the butler gives you is a classic, and I refuse to type it in and spoil the surprise. Do be sure and let the end credits run all the way through at least once. As is traditional with Muppets, you will get more than just names running up your screen.
You may want to save one game where you are on Treasure Island with all the rocks. This will let you jump directly to the last bit of the game without hassles. The other three scenes, you can just jump in and play with, if you want to.

For Windows (32-bit Systems) [*Please review compatibility/platform sections in 'What You Get']
WHAT YOU GET:
This item is for the original media, and includes only the media (ie. CD, floppy ...) UNLESS specifically stated above and/or in the title. If more than just the media is included, it will state which items are (ie. box, manual, etc ). Items that come in a sleeve refer to a generic CD sleeve (typically white) and will be sent with shipping protection to avoid damage during transit. If available, we will also send the front and/or back CD inserts if in stock. If these are important to you, please message us to verify we have them available to send. Please do not assume items are included other than what's stated. Again, ask questions PRIOR to purchasing if you have any concerns.
IMAGES:
All images/pictures are stock photos and are for reference only, mainly to show the type of game you will be getting. Please read "WHAT YOU GET" for what is included with the media. Screenshots may vary based on your own computer system, video card, monitor, etc.
COMPATIBILITY:
Computers are like people, each one is different. Unlike console games, a computer game may install and work flawlessly on one system but may need adjustments on another. This is due to a variety of factors, mainly the OS platform running, video card you have, drivers, protection software installed, etc. Many times manufacturers release updates to games to fix bugs and add enhancements. We would be happy to help get the game going on your computer, but ultimately compatibility issues are the responsibility of the buyer. We suggest going to Google and searching for the name of the game along with the words "system requirements" to determine if your system is suitable. Ultimately, we are not responsible for software compatibility problems or publisher's errors.
PLATFORM:
Stated within the auction is what platform the game will work on (ie. Windows, Mac, Linux...) This is a generic statement and specific platform versions (ie. XP, Vista...) will have to be researched by the buyer. Games that came out PRIOR to XP or higher will not specifically state they will work on that release, but only because they came out before those versions were made. Many, if not most, will work on XP or higher with a few quick adjustments. We provide instructions with all items purchased on how to do this adjustment using the Program Compatibility Wizard. If we find out that an item will definately not work on a specific version, we will state it. For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program if the Program Compatibility Wizard does not work.
64-Bit Windows OS Systems:
For 64-bit Operating Systems, older games most likely will NOT work due to 64-bit systems not being able to run 16-bit programming code (most games prior to 2000). For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program.
Macintosh Systems:
For Macintosh programs, most older games will need to be run in Classic Environment if you have a MAC OS X 10.0 - 10.4 version. Please research Google on how to do this, or send us a message for information prior to purchasing. If your MAC OS system doesn't support Classic Environment (ie. MAC OS X 10.5 or Higher OR Intel Macs), you will have to try running it using the free program called SheepShaver, but compatibility is not ensured. Please research prior to purchasing or ask questions.
MEDIA FORMAT:
Please verify you have the required hardware in order to use the specified media (ie. CD, DVD, floppy drives, etc.) If the item comes as a floppy disc, make sure you have either the needed 3.5" floppy drive or the bigger and older 5.25" floppy drive.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR A SMOOTH PURCHASE:
Ask questions PRIOR to purchasing an order to avoid any confusion.
Be patient if there are problems during installation or gameplay. Typically someone else has
already ran into that problem and has listed a solution online. Contact us and we will do our best to help.
Be sure to update your video card drivers and search for updates to the game from the manufacturer.
