Once
again the Atari comes to the fore as a learning tool or educational
experience. This travelogue, which we believe was originally part of the
now defunct disk magazine The New Aladdin, takes you on a journey to
Australia, New Zealand and Russia. The narrative takes the form of a
series of text screen pages that are turned with the cursor keys. In The
Australian Experience, which comes In two parts, you will discover many
interesting facts about life and living in the land of Oz from a native
contributor whilst New Zealand is represented with three excellent
drawings from Harvey Kong-Tin, a friend of Page 6 from long ago. The
final narrative details the exploits of an American student on a journey
to Russia just after travel restrictions were lifted and gives a unique
insight into what it was like to travel to what was at the time one of
the world's least accessible countries. There are 32 pages of
information on Australia, 18 on Russia with the New Zealand pictures as
well and the disk is in enhanced format so that the disk is as packed as
it could be. This series of travelogues from The New Aladdin is another
unique use of the Atari for educational or leisure interest that
deserves a look.
