"Henry the Hedgehog's Big Adventure" is a fun interactive CD-ROM for you!
It includes a story called 'Henry's Mysterious Present',
exciting games you can play, cool screensavers,
and an internet link to Henry's Clubhouse,
where the fun never stops!
(Excerpt from the packaging)
The download is a hybrid ISO Image created with ImgBurn on Windows 10.
Tested on my Indigo iMac G3 (2000, 350MHz) running Mac OS 9.2.1 with QuickTime 6.0.3 and found no problems. I have not tested the internet section but I think the website is still available or offline as of 2016. All other stuff on the CD-ROM is OK.
CompatibilityMAC PowerPC processor, 8 MB of available RAM, 10 MB hard drive space, 4 X CD-ROM, System 7.5 or later, SVGA monitor ( 640 x 480, 256 colours ), 16-bit sound
Comments
I've recently (as of April 2018) tested Henry the Hedgehog's Big Adventure on a PowerBook G4 15-inch Aluminum (Early 2005) running Mac OS X 10.4.11 with Classic Environment installed, same sound lagging issue as with the eMac/Mac OS X Panther test, but here, there are some dropped frames in the animation as another known bug when running it under Classic Environment, but it still works though.
Henry the Hedgehog's Big Adventure also works on my eMac G4 1.25 GHz running Mac OS X 10.3.4 with Classic Environment installed, and the only issue I encountered is the minor sound lagging, but that's due to the nature of some Macromedia Director 7-based games and apps running under Mac OS X Classic Environment.
So far, this is the rarest CD-ROM I can find here in Canada since the CD-ROM was a giveaway/gift from a mutual fund for children. By uploading this to the Macintosh Garden, it will be used for preservation purposes since it can be hard to find! (I know, I got this from the thrift store as with all the other uploads, and recently I used ImgBurn on my Acer Aspire 5552 Laptop running Windows 10 to do that!)
