This had to have been the LONGEST Jumpstart game! It was so unlike all the others we had played as kids, and for a while I was too afraid to try completing it. My sister though had no such reservations. We definitely felt very accomplished to have finally beaten this game, they really went all out with this one. Thanks for this and so many other memories, JumpStart!
@systemthegaming Жыл бұрын
It took a good amount of time, that's for sure. I wonder if those games were really made for kids to finish, or if they were just meant to be repetitive to learn... I also just finished Jumpstart 2nd grade, and that one also took a while... 4th had a better ending tho.

This game was difficult for me to finish not because it's hard but it was very scary for me. The way those ghosts just pop out when you're walking and the whole dark vibe. T_T I believe I bought it when I was in the 3rd grade, played it a few times and got creeped out so I put it away for a while and was finally able to finish it in the 5th grade when I became more ballsy LOL. 😂

Good luck looking for it! I think it's been out of print for some time now. They also "remade" the game, but instead of being Haunted Island, they removed the "scary" element and made it about looking for crystals or something.

1:26:20 I remember navigating this game was a huge source of frustration. I think the game came with a better map of the island in the instruction book, but obviously, that isn't available in-game, so without it, you're kind of blind. It's poor map design, in my opinion.
@aceshighdueceslow Жыл бұрын
iirc the game has a quick-travel option, of sorts. I definitely remember that when looking at the map if you clicked on a place it took you to that area. I don't think it took you directly to the mini-game itself, but nearby enough as opposed to walking all across the frigging island and chancing running into Respac

@@aceshighdueceslow You're correct. I definitely remember using "fast travel" by clicking the mini-game I needed to go to on the map, and it would send you there so you wouldn't have to try finding it yourself. Pretty sure the game dropped you off right in front of the mini games too. I guess the only real downside to not exploring the map by yourself was that you missed out on the in-game art/graphics of the island which I thought were really well done. Fast travel is best if you want to avoid bumping into Repsac or Ms. Grunkel randomly and be banished to the island labyrinth!
