Computerized Coloring Books is a collection of three games developed by Capstone Software and published by its parent company IntraCorp for both the DOS and Amiga operating systems. A port for Windows 3.1 was planned but never took place.[2] The games are based on Bill Kroyer's film FernGully: The Last Rainforest, Don Bluth's film Rock-a-Doodle, and John Hughes's film Home Alone.[3] The Rock-a-Doodle game was as released with Trolls and An American Tail: The Computer Adventures of Fievel and His Friends on the Capstone CD Game Kids Collection.[4]

There are 16 colors available, although they can be mixed to get up to 256 colors.[5] The player can choose from a selection of backgrounds and add any characters to the picture, both of which are based on scenes and characters of the respective films.[6] The products support a wide range of printers for the time of its release, including dot matrix, colour and laser printers.[2]


Promotion


In the spirit of FernGully — color on your computer and save a tree.

Angie Niehoff

The FernGully product was designed to follow an environmentally friendly policy, including the use of recycled paper.[7] After the release of the games, Capstone sent entry forms with the boxed products for a coloring contest.[2] The prize for the best pictures were $100 each.[8]
