Possible Request: Crystal Rainforest

This is a longshot in many different directions

For one, i played it on an Acorn Archamedies however i am pretty sure the box art had Acorn, Apple and Windows logos on it so the disk could run the game under three different operating systems.

Crystal Rainforest was an educational game that a lot of kids of my generation played on the School Acorns when it was too wet to go outside during break, a quick google reveals that there is a new version with contemporary graphics and compatibility available to schools now but from what i can see, the two games only share the name

So give us a shout if you know what i'm on about, i've got my eye on eBay

It was released on Mac OS, along with Crystal Rainforest II - I remember playing both on Macintosh. Smile

Nipped over to an RISC OS community to find out more about this, what i described was Version 1 of The Crystal Rainforest II. The CD version could indeed boot on all three systems, but they are rather rare now
