DESCRIPTION OF FEATURES

3-D Board Game--WaterWorks--Your playing piece is water--ice, liquid, or
steam--and your objective is to find your way to the clouds. Challenges,
surprises, and all manner of water-living creatures lurk in your path .
You control your direction but watch out--you may find yourself in
unexpected dilemmas and tough situations. Strategy is important and so is
your understanding of water to attain success!

Database Story--Winston and the Great Water Cycle--This animated story
graphically explains what water is, what it is like, and the role it plays
in sustaining our living planet. Loaded with 3-D graphics, simulations,
video, and photographs, the principles of water are delightfully displayed
and explained. This feature contains numerous experiments that can be done
at home by your budding young scientist(s).

Coloring Gallery: Surprises await the younger child in this paint program
that abounds with more than 20 screen templates originating from various
parts of the World of Water program. Children may color the templates or
create their own art with the musical squid markers. They may color
independently or with some of OSLO's friends that may be activated during
this program. Artwork may be printed, saved, or exported to a frame which
hangs in OSLO's gallery.

OSLO's Friends: Select several of OSLO's main interface buttons and find
his friends as they dance, swim, scoot, and swish over your screen or play
some of their favorite music for you! Locate strange and unusual sounds or
play with OSLO as he talks, jokes, or performs zany antics. You never
really know what OSLO is up to but you know he is up to his snorkel in
water and fun!

Screen Savers: Leave OSLO unattended and anything could happen--like
finding your favorite artwork becoming a screensaver on your computer! The
screensavers automatically change and anything goes when OSLO joins in on
the fun!
