5.0 out of 5 stars A caution for Windows Vista x64 users..., December 8, 2008

Hello everyone...

I've had a lot of fun with this game, too, since I first played it in 2000, it's one of my favorite games for kids. It works fine in Windows 9x, XP and I assume, Windows ME and 2000 Professional. However, when I installed the game on my copy of Windows Vista Home Premium x64, the game (the main .exe "sputm90r" file) will not run, even using Windows XP and 95/98 compatibility modes. :-( This was confirmed in an exchange of e-mails from Trymedia Games technical support.

I don't know if it will work in 32 bit Vista, it's possible. I would have to find a system with Vista 32 bit to test this on.

May God Bless you!

We had this game on our old machine running windows ME. My 6 year old was really upset that he couldn't play anymore on our xp computer. when i saw this claim that it was for windows xp, I jumped on it! Upon receipt I saw that the package had a different picture on the box than the one advertised. It is meant to run on windows 95 and failed to load on our xp machine. Either is is improperly advertised or they sent me the wrong game. We are not happy!

I originally bought this for my now 10 year old when he was around Kindergarten age. He loved it and eagerly learned computer controls and problem solving why completing this game. We are now buying it for his 4 year old brother who played a free demo upon his brothers recommendation and loved it. I thought this was simpler than "You are what you eat from your head to your feet" and "Thunder and Lightning aren't so frightening". We have enjoyed the whole series. The Putt Putt series (ex. Putt Putt saves the Zoo)is a good series as well.
