McGee was the first in a series for preschoolers. The program allows kids to control young McGee, a preschooler himself, in and around his house. This is done from the mouse by pointing and clicking at the pictorial icons at the bottom of screen. For instance, if you click on the ball, McGee will start playing with it. If you click on the TV, McGee will sit down and proceed watching the tube.
The graphics and animation are all very well done and kids simply love it.
The program requires only 512k of RAM when run from floppy disk, but requires more if run from the Finder. Installing the program to a hard drive and running from System 6 is no problem.
