Mixed-Up Mother Goose (VGA) is completed in the Sierra ChestTweetNews ID: 378 Date: 2017-04-23 Source: Sierra Chest Mixed-Up Mother Goose (SCI), designed by Roberta Williams, became one of the best-loved children's software titles of all time. The child can pick from several characters to find the one that most resembles him or herself and the game uses a simple child-friendly interface. Originally the game was made in 1987, using Sierra's AGI engine. It was then remade in 1990 with Sierra's SCI0 engine, featuring higher resolution and soundcard support, but still EGA graphics. This VGA remake is the third and most extensive remake of the game. Not only does it feature brand new VGA graphics, but also a new interface, and the rhymes were given voices, each of them being sung separately. Also an in-game map of the land was added, if the player should ever feel lost in the nursery rhyme world. The VGA release was made both for floppy and multimedia CD-ROM. The floppy and CD-ROM versions are not completely identical, with the main difference being that CD version features full digital speech, whereas the floppy version only the rhymes were digitally recorded. Finally in 1995 it was again remade as Mixed-Up Mother Goose Deluxe, featuring SVGA graphics.
