Emulation
This game works with: Basilisk II,

Troggle Trouble Math is a 1994 educational game by MECC, the legendary edutainment company responsible for classics like The Oregon Trail and the Munchers series. This game is an action-adventure spinoff of the Muncher games featuring the scientist Magenta and her dog Sparky as they try to rescue the Muncher from the evil Dr. Frankentroggle. Rather than presenting problems to answer, Troggle Trouble Math makes players explore a handful of stages (some repeated) and solve story problems to find items important to tracking down the Troggles. Incidental events force players (from grades 1 through 7) to make their own math problems and quickly solve equations.

The graphics run at the speed of the graphics processor. So this game works best on a real machine with a CPU speed of around or under 100MHz. For example, ran great on a Performa 6250CD (75 MHz 603e).

Tip.
When Sparky howls to warn of Troggles hit the space bar - this throws up a shield.
Then feed Sparky a bone (move the bone cursor inside the shield and click) and he will tell you how many Troggles there are.

From the now-deleted other entry, which had Mac only:

It runs way too fast in Mac OS 9, especially when Troggles spin around you. To solve that, just do command-shift-4 as if you were making a screen capture...

...but it doesn't really save it anyway. Unlike the original Munchers, this one offers no real fast-paced puzzle movements, the calculator is poorly designed, and Magenta is a d****e.

It seemed so cool when I was in 2nd grade.

Me, the game runs fine in Bas. I had a system error 1001 when I try to run this in Sheep.
NativeChecker told me, the game is based on the 68k architecture, so I fixed this entry as well.

Nice, sfp1954 provided a hybrid image of this game. Smile
