Can't seem to be able to recall one...

All I remember is a maybe a blonde kid on a pogo stick? Rings a bell?

My mother banned it- she thought it was too violent!

I think he meant bonus levels...
I don't know what they were called. You had to find hidden door's to drop thru to get to them (I think they started at level 3 it been a while).

  • Location: The value of a forum such as this one is not in that one can post a question and receive an answer, but in that the question has most likely been asked before, and the answer is available to him that will but only use the search function.
  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

Ah, nothing like a little non-violence such as getting killed by Indians or dysentry or a snowstorm :)

I used to spend hours on Nancy Drew games.

Some of the newer ones have pritzus issues, though. You can usually tell by looking at the CD case or the ad.
Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.
