Om spillet

Denne anmeldelse er endnu ikke oversat — vi viser originalen (English).

A children's title based on Richard Scarry's picture books, and a loose follow-up to the earlier Busytown game. There is nothing to win or lose: the child clicks around Busytown, opens each scene and finds out what happens when you poke the bakery, the fire engine or the building site. Every action comes with an animation and a spoken line, so it plays more like leafing through a picture book that answers back.

What makes it interesting is where it was made. It was programmed by Novotrade in Budapest for the American publisher Simon & Schuster Interactive — the same studio that built Ecco the Dolphin for Sega. Throughout the nineties Hungarian teams wrote software to Western order like this, and their names rarely made it onto the box.
