For System 7.0 - 7.6
Emulation
This game works with: Basilisk II,

Working against the clock to prevent a giant meteoroid from crashing into Earth, players must answer science riddles about the Earth in order to save humankind from certain destruction. Luckily, Nye Labs is well-equipped for finding answers to such riddles -- with a Rocket Lab, a giant Van de Graaf Generator, a Remotely Operated Submursible Explorer (ROSE), a Pressure Chamber, an UltraZoomer 5000, and many other devices that are all fully operational. Only by exploring Nye Labs, beautifully rendered in 3-D, can you solve the riddles. Of course, players will have help from Bill Nye and his staff every step of the way. (Amazon.com)

Minimum Requirements

This game seems to be incompatible with Mac OS 7.6 and higher - it always crashes at the front door or shortly thereafter.

I was mistaken: I had it running in Windows XP under Parallels, not SheepShaver (it did indeed crash at the front door when I tried it). However, I know I had it working on my old iMac G3 with OS 9.1, so maybe it's a SheepShaver problem.

I have a copy that's running fine on OS 9.0.4 in SheepShaver - should I upload it?
