The drawing and painting functions are easy to use, there are lots of sound effects, a library of animal clipart, and lots of practical and silly effects can be applied to the picture.

Note: if you're new to archive.org, you need to click show all under download options. You'll see a file listing, download the BIN and CUE files. Those are what you need to mount the image with a virtual drive or burn it on a CD to play the game.
