A fun game, but didn't take long to beat and I didn't have capabilities to save the previous games. I am not sure if it was related to my computer or not?? We got a new computer with Windows 7 and it sometimes does funky things to the games.

This review is from: History Channel: Monster Quest (CD-ROM)

Giant footprints trail through the forest, too large to be human, but clearly two-footed and not belonging to a typical woodland creature. As a trained investigator, you've seen this sort of thing before - those footprints look straight out of the files you've been studying, containing eyewitness accounts of a supposedly mythical creature. Could this be further proof that the creature in fact exists, or it is just one more element in an enormous hoax?

The History Channel's smash hit series comes to life on your PC in Monster Quest. Join the team as a junior investigator, hot on the trail of some of history's most famous creatures of myth and legend. Whether you're experimenting in the lab, searching for clues in the field or combing through detailed files, it's up to you to determine whether these elusive creatures are fact, fiction or fraud. Solve puzzles and complete challenging quests in your pursuit of the truth. With your cleverness and keen investigative skills, the world will finally know whether these creatures of legend are real or figures of humanity's collective imagination.
