It does open a very simplistic-looking list of items depending on what you're carrying , but you can't interact with them.
Hitting F3 opens another version of this primitive interface which instructs you to hit Enter for a selection. You use the arrow keys to scroll through the items, and hitting Enter means you are now carrying the item in your hand. In the meantime, Taran was continually dying of thirst because I couldn't get any water to him from the flask he was carrying. The first puzzle is to fill the flask. First you select the flask from the inventory by hitting F3 and highlight the flask.
Then Taran must be standing beside a container of water or river or lake so he can fill the flask, which he does automatically when you hit F4 - which is the shortcut for using the object you're carrying. Although Taran then had water in his flask, I still had to convince the character to drink it. I repeatedly F4'd hoping the character would drink from the flask, but Taran was having none of it.
I F3'd back to the inventory and discovered that 'water' was now listed as a separate object. I'll let you figure out what has to be done next. An annoying part of the gameplay is that every few screens you're informed that Taran is hungry or thirsty, so if he isn't watered and fed, he quickly dies. The constant filling of water containers, drinking and feeding becomes repetitive and distracting.
But once Taran is initially refreshed and HenWen the pig is fed, then you can finally embark on the adventure of a life-time. For the first time in your short life, you leave the safety of the farm and set out to rescue HenWen who has been kidnapped by a large bird-like creature and thwart the evil plans of the Horned King. It's a fun game set within a beautiful forest and deadly swampland with a storyline and gameplay that become more engaging the further into the game you progress.
The puzzles aren't frustrating or hard, and once you understand the logic of the game, and the interface, progress is swift. Do Robots Dream of Ice Cream? Knorrig the Gifted Troublemaker.

I haven't played this game since I was a kid and was really looking forward to it. The Mouse House actually made more money off this game than they did the movie, which was a major flop in the theaters.
A lot of K-6 schools bought copies to help kids get a start on the basics of just using a computer - booting up, using a floppy drive, accessing files, loading programs, etc, etc. Pollito 1 point DOS version. Anne 0 point DOS version. It's been years since I played this game, but I believe you actually need to type words to interact with things. Eric 0 point DOS version.
Press Esc to bring up the command buttons. This game uses the F keys for everything. IJKM or arrows to move around. Justyn 0 point DOS version. I was hoping I could make this game play.
Also no key I pressed seemed to work as the interact button. I wasn't able to enter doors, interact with any items or places. It looks like a fun game, let me know if anyone knows how to make it work right. Share your gamer memories, help others to run the game or comment anything you'd like.
