Spelling Jungle (AKA Yobi's Basic Spelling Tricks)
This game was great. I want to play again!
A company would have to make a redux version of this game to make it work with modern systems. Good luck with that though. lol
I would like to play this again. I used to play it a lot as a kid. A new game with harder grade spelling would also be nice.
@trevbot911 The real problem is that, if it's like Spelling Blizzard which I own, it uses a 16-bit Windows executable which can't run on modern 64-bit versions of Windows. Without any way to emulate 16-bit Windows (without owning Windows 3.1), a fair number of games are going to be lost to time.
I know GOG would have big hurdles to jump to get this on here, but I feel this game should really be preserved.
To spell a word correctly is to honor its meaning.
I went back and played this game and replayed this game and just thought, "I've learned nothing from my childhood. My favorite game as a kid was called Basic Spelling Tricks and I'm still constantly using spell check," (I'm surprised I got "constantly" on my first try).
As for getting this on GOG, is might cause problems because this game needs to run in 256 colors and I don't think you can automatically set your computer to run it like that (Good luck explaining how to do that to everyone who buys this game). Unless they completely remake this game, I wouldn't expect to see it here.
This game is so awesome. The puzzles are complicated enough so you actually feel like you solved something in the end!
