Macintosh Garden - Educational

Franklin's Activity Center

Headset Guy — Sun, 25 Jan 2015 20:39:50 +0000

This is your standard activity center, with greeting card printer, coloring pages, puzzles and games. It was published in 1996. This is the full version of the game; there is a demo as well, which is the same as the full version, but it only works for 15 minutes or so at a time.

The zipped file is a hybrid ISO image that is compatible with both Windows and Macintosh.

Bowser is at it again! He's using a time machine, called a Timulator, to loot historical artefacts from the past, in order to stock his museum. He plans to destroy the time machine after, and therefore change the course of history forever. It's up to Mario to stop Bowser and return all the stolen artefacts to their rightful place in history! (MobyGames)
