This CD is from 1994. It does NOT work with Windows 2000 or XP (or Vista, I'm sure).
So I haven't been able to really use it, though it did install. Then it wants 256 colors on the desktop, and gives some CD-audio errors, and acts pretty weird.

This piece is great for kids. You should also consider the adventures of Captain -- Captain Jon's Island Adventure and Captain Jon Explores the Ocean.


5 out of 5 stars Great game if you want to learn about marine biology!!   August 12, 2004

This is such a cool game! The Magic School Bus games are all quite good. I really like how you can visit many different ocean zones so you can see that not all parts of the ocean are alike. It is unique that you can "perform" your own science experiments on the same program that you can play fun games on. I like the game with the crab. :)
If your child shows any interest in marine biology, I highly recommend that you purchase this game!



3 out of 5 stars MSB does the ocean... not as well as I'd hoped!   July 7, 2004
6 out of 6 found this review helpful

I am a MSB fan and am trying to get my young children interested too. The Ocean was the first MSB software we got, and I'm afraid it will be the last. It's ok, but I'm disappointed that the software doesn't load correctly (on 3 different computers and 2 operating systems (win98, XP)! None worked right!). It will start, but it is very difficult to navigate the first few times until you "learn" where things are. Finding out where to go and what to click on is trial and error for the most part. Maybe I just haven't "found" the good stuff yet, but I was hoping for better!

Kept my rambunctious 4 year old boy entertained for hours, which is difficult to do! Many areas to click on and explore.
