Ikr I was thinking about it and couldn't remember if it was real or not lol like oh ya I remember this! Lol

I was looking for this game for ages, used to love this game.

[@Primalinstincts101]

The music in this game is very memorable. I appreciate you allowing each section of the game to play out instead of speed running through it.

[@h.7537]

Agreed

[@enticingmuffin]

did the ending scare the shit out of anyone else as a kid? i don't remember why but it was really unsettling when i beat the game matter of fact many parts of this game were very creepy to me

[@HakiVergo]

Seriously.. I dont know why but the nostalgia associated with this game gives me some really weird creepy vibes

[@carolinebergin4633]

I was just disappointed I wanted to see Sam rescue Reader.

[@VixxieVamp92]

The sound effect in Skillway when you pick a wrong answer scared me when I was a kid. Some other bizarre things about this game scared me too. I really thought I was the only one lol

[@symmetrykidkun8]

Yes! It freaked me out!

[@PajamaManFan]

No!

[@GMDAzure]

Omg I finally found it, took me ages to remember! Man I loved this game so much, the nostalgia is really kicking in ;)

Who needs love when youve got the corageous sam the lion there for you? More than i need imo

[@1994glg]

It's Saturday night again

[@sinsenest]

There's actually a lot of good music in this game.

[@glitchingaming2343]

that's actually why I remembered about this game, the awesome music popped into my head

[@lynnlitung]

A good reason to come back to it!!!

[@carolinebergin4633]

Just like sonic heroes 2004

[@animefan7355]

This game used to scare me when I was little... It still sort of gives me the creeps, especially the Lab Skillways...

[@axllaw427]

This game was disturbing when I was a kid for some reason.

[@tbrian838]

Oh my gosh yes

[@MrLuffy9131]

I got scared of the flying things when the castle seemed to be empty

[@justsupershiny]

This game was kind of scary for me when I was little lol. It felt lonely and the parts where Sam is running down the hallway gave me so much stress

[@angelasmith1122]

@@justsupershiny So much anxiety 😐the music didn’t help either

[@beckiejbrown]

You know what's really funny.... My brother and I were talking about this just now and I found it for him, forgetting I found this years ago. Then I saw my previous comment from 4 years ago on here hahahahaha!

[@Zack91974]

[@ghost3bones]

I use to play this game when I was a kid! It's just like meeting a old friend!

[@westerfrost3701]

My brother and I played it, too.

[@fytyh5]

I would literally play this game every day, i love the 90s

[@hilowo]

this haunted me for years! thank you for putting this up so I know I remembered correctly😂😂 can't believe I found this because all I remember from this game was a lion running through an neverending hallway😅

[@ozfan6477]

I liked stories that were scary as a kid, and when I first played this game, I was disappointed at the end when the dragon turned out to be a good guy. I thought we were going to get an epic fight. But my disappointment didn't last long, because the ending was hilarious. I haven't played this game in years.

[@lilgreentealeaf]

I would have sworn on my mama this was a fever dream. I'm so glad I played this and the kindergarten game growing up.

[@zebrateaparty]

The amount of dopamine this is giving me from the nostalgia holy moly

[@Laury2Seas]

I hated the essay or summary parts. I always get lazy when I was little.

[@MrEightThreeOne]

+GamingDude888 Don't worry, you're not alone. My essays basically amounted to me hitting random keys on the keyboard. Something like: kljhad jhalkfhdaklj wuieroap qoi u ajdflkajsdlk fioauopeuwroakjd fal;kj dals;kfj a;iuwoea;jdkha fjkah fjskahgfuwa jkah fuawyherla But since I'm older and can articulate thoughts better now...I tend to be a little more creative with it :)

[@Onest00p1d_vampire]

LaurySeas Otter Lol yeah ^^

[@LittleJerryFan92]

Saaaaaame. My least favorite part.

[@carolinebergin4633]

I liked them because nobody else could read them I got shy easily

[@NightShade1218]

I always loved the character of Riddle/Rhyme. She was such a unique character in my eyes, that I would actually look forward to doing the Skillway just for her.

[@iceeaslan7597]

I remember going through this game thinking "when does it end?!?!" the nostalgia is way too real for this game :)

[@Sharletwitch]

That little court jester Riddles and Rhymes creeped me out so much as a kid lol

[@kieravidal107]

Thank you so much for uploading this. I feel like I'm reliving my childhood. The stories you wrote got a good chuckle out of me. 😄 And who knew how much personality could show through cursor movements? 🤣 And thanks for letting us bask in the soundtrack, it's much appreciated.

[@KeanuReevolution]

wow wow wow , nostalgia really hittin me, thank you for uploading!!

[@JuiceJuicity]

40:15 I KNEW ALL THE LYRICS TO THAT SONG AS A KID! I'd sing it around the house constantly and my mom would be like "wtf..."

[@carrinwesson9965]

thank goodness I'm not the onlt one

[@LarrySonOfMilton]

SAME

[@JustFaithSilly]

That song sounds so beautiful and sad at the same time

[@Mattrino101]

I was in 3rd grade when this game came out, and I would play it with my cousin, who was in 2nd grade. We used to tear up when this song would come on. There was something wrong with us lol, but it might be a testament to how good the music was in this game.

[@ethana.8653]

I liked this game, until about halfway through tower 2. At that point, despair set in for my little 2nd grade heart, and I began...HATING this game. Really, truly hating it with a burning fire inside me that filled me with rage at the very notion of ever playing it. But I knew that I had started it, I had made it halfway through the game, and I would FINISH IT. And that's the story of how that twisted little second-grader turned into an extremely twisted adult that I am now.

[@SprSncConzor]

Same here, but I could never beat it. The castle just scared me to death!

[@jurebegaming]

@conzuh... dude same lol

[@waikeonglim7703]

Wait, Charles Martinet played Sir Drayson and Monsterous Mirror?! Man this man more of my childhood than i thought

[@fractallusion7121]

Man I played this game so many times as a kid. Such fond memories. Thanks for posting this, it took me a bit to remember what the game was called.

[@jeremydmitrukjd]

Fun fact: the dragon is voiced by Mario himself; Charles Martinet :D

[@animefan7355]

+jetlifejd So is Monstrous Mirror!

[@LuckoDaStars]

So Mario voice acted to dragons in his lifetime. A wacky dragon and a powerful Dragon who betrayed his brother

[@SarahJayne2603]

I'm from England and I had this game and it was in British English with different voices for the characters. I had quite a few of the learning company's programmes. Good Memories from my childhood. Thanks for uploading the game!

[@Thomasmemoryscentral]

Do you think different UK Voices were needed Sarah? The original ones here don't seem like they'd turn off British fans

[@SarahJayne2603]

I'm not saying that they're needed in any sense of the word. When I played the game, it wasn't in American English was all I was saying.

[@beckiejbrown]

OH MY GOODNESS GRACIOUS..... OH MY!!! THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!

[@AR_119]

The nostalgia hammer just hit me right in the face, I can't believe I found this game again

[@TechReviewTom]

this game was freaking legit.

[@CEO100able]

I remember the Reader Rabbit games. I played Reader Rabbit Toddler, Reader Rabbit: Learn to Read with Phonics, etc. Did you know that there's another game series made by the same company called "The ClueFinders," which is a counterpart to this series for older children? I think you'd like its games since they're pretty much like the Junior Adventure games made by Humongous Entertainment.

[@badatshooters]

[@musicbyjamie]

Damn from putting on a play to saving your “kidnapped” friend. 2nd grade was rough, man. Bring me back to 1st!

[@MrEightThreeOne]

The first time through on most of the activities I decided to let you listen to the music, since a certain uploader forgot a few. Every other time I just let the dialog finish.

[@CEO100able]

Is it me, or does Sam the Lion's voice sound different in this game?

[@RockmanX02]

CEO100able yes as he was voiced by roger l Jackson, the voice of butch (the voice he was making in the game) mojo in the powerpuff girls, and ghosface from scream.

[@elfin2865]

Oh man, this brings back memories... though for some reason this game scared me when I was little, lol. Edit: Also a big fan of the southern belle knight, who I completely forgot about til now. :P

[@ChristopherGittings]

This game messed me up as a kid. I had terrible nightmares. It's reassuring to find this again almost 20 years later, see all the comments, and know that I wasn't the only one.

[@ChristopherGittings]

I find it hilarious now that the dragon I was so afraid of as a young kid was voiced by the same person who voiced Mario in the Nintendo games I enjoyed around the same time.

[@ChristopherGittings]

Another thing - as a kid I literally thought this was a slender man or FNAF type game where I would need to avoid the dragon and sleuth around the castle while completing puzzles, or risk getting jump scared and the lion dying. I had no context as young kid to know that kind of this was never going to happen in an educational game like this. I have no idea how I had these preconceptions in my mind well before games with these sorts of mechanics ever existed.
