Create With Garfield is a 1986 educational computer game based on the Garfield franchise, developed by Ahead Designs and published by Development Learning Materials. It was released for Apple II, Commodore 64 and IBM PC. A deluxe edition was released in 1987; it featured two disks (one containing additional character and prop sprites), improved printer drivers and a shortcut for returning to a previous screen.[1][2] A companion disk was released in 1989.[2]
Content
The game allows players to make Garfield cartoons with pieces of artwork featuring characters, props, backgrounds, and text. The game functions with a drag-and-drop system used by a keyboard, mouse or joystick. Cartoons can be printed and/or saved to disk.[3]
Reception
Eric Holroyd, in a review for the Australian Apple Review, recommended the game for Garfield fans, especially if mixed with the similar game Teddy Bear-rels of Fun, claiming that "The added bonus of mixing and matching the two will give endless hours of fun for you, your family and your friends".[1]
