About the McGee Game Series
The McGee games are known for their simple and interactive "point and click" style. This means players use a computer mouse to click on different things on the screen. When you click, the character in the game, McGee, will do something related to that object. It's a great way for young kids to learn about cause and effect and explore different places.
The First Adventure: McGee
The very first game in the series, simply called McGee, was released in 1989. In this game, you get to control a young character named McGee as he explores his own house. You can click on various objects around his home. For example, if you click on a ball, McGee might start playing with it. If you click on the television, McGee will sit down and watch it. It's all about discovering what McGee can do in his everyday surroundings.
Exploring the Farm: Katie's Farm
In 1990, the second game in the series came out, called Katie's Farm. This time, McGee leaves his house to visit his cousin, Katie, at her farm. Just like the first game, you use the "point and click" method to explore. Kids can discover all sorts of interesting things that happen on a farm, from animals to farm equipment, making it a new adventure for McGee.
Fun and Games: McGee at the Fun Fair
The third and final game in the series, McGee at the Fun Fair, was released in 1991. This game takes McGee on an exciting trip to a fun fair! He goes with his friend Tony and his parents, who keep a careful eye on them. Players can explore the fairgrounds, click on different rides and attractions, and see what happens. It uses the same easy-to-use "point and click" style as the earlier games, making it a fun way to end McGee's adventures.
