Hooray for Henrietta

DOS 1990
Hooray for Henrietta is part of a series of educational Scetlander titles, originally created by T. R. Tulloch and dedicated to teaching mathematics in a fun way to children ages 5 to 12. A girl named Henrietta is our protagonist: she is getting married to her suspiciously named groom Hopeless Harry, but that naughty bird, John the parrot, has stolen Henry's coat, boots, hat and pants, and has even kidnapped the groom himself. To save the wedding, we have to help Henrietta recover the four pieces of clothing and free Henry. To do this, we must solve mathematical equations (the options offer a variety of levels of complexity, as well as a choice of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, or all of them) as quickly as possible, or the evil parrot will cover Henry in cold custard! The game was later re-released with 256 colors and sound, and then on CD-ROM.

Spellbound!

DOS 1991
One of Scetlander's educational titles, 'Spellbound!' is quite unusual in that it is an educational shooter and not a puzzle or adventure game. We play as Hal, who is Henrietta's American cousin (from 'Hooray for Henrietta' and 'Henrietta's Book of Spells'). Henrietta has asked us to help her take on Morgana the Morbid. That witch has given her magic wand to a twisted genius, Professor Grime - a typical mad scientist - who has hidden it in his locked safe with five padlocks. Consequently, we must find five keys in five levels: Underground, Submarine, Downtown, Alaska and Space Base. The object of the game is to pilot (or swim) a helicopter (or a submarine, or a spaceship) through levels full of obstacles and Professor Grime's henchmen: they shoot at us and we shoot at them, and after dying they leave us each a letter that we have to collect in specific order to spell a certain word (which is shown as a task before starting a level). The game features good graphics and music, and even some voice-overs.
