DAMBers-
Make me a little less stupider.
Is Imaginarium a PC Video Game?
Was it converted to a soundtrack also?
Its a loadable CD for your PC?
I have heard discussion that some cant play it cuz its too old..or something of that nature.
I know nothing about it really.

Imaginarium is a collection of Terry's soundtracks for video games. It includes the soundtracks from The Neverhood, Skullmonkeys and Boombots.
The Neverhood was released for both the PC and Playstation. The other two were only released for the Playstation (I think).
I'd recommend picking up The Neverhood if you can find it. It's unlike any other video game I have played and Terry's music fits it perfectly! It can be difficult to get it working on Windows 2000. It should work fine on Win95 or Win98. Windows XP has a compatibility mode that should be set to Win95 compatibility to get it working.
If you never play the games, you should still take a listen to Imaginarium. Imagine someone telling Terry he can write whatever music he wants with no restrictions whatsoever. You won't imagine the songs on this album, but you might come close!

pup- Thx
So - you Play Neverhood and Skulmonkeys /Boombots and you listen to imaginarium...well- you play imaginarium to listen to...never mind.
I've heard bits and pieces of Imaginarium..and I like it.
So - to clarify - which Game contains musical fruit.!?
AND - so you need a joystick to play- or can you use the keyboard to manuever?
IS a good place to scavange for Neverhood /Skulmonkeys/Boombots in a Used PC gaming store..something like that? There are a number of them in my area.
Where was this originally released.. to CCM stores? - or Gaming stores?
I really get to wondering...

"Musical Fruit" is on Skullmonkeys.
The PC version of Neverhood is played with the mouse. The Playstation versions of the games are played with the Playstation controller (that was self-explanatory, wasn't it?
)
The best place to find these games would probably be eBay. Used games stores would be a good place to check, too. This was not marketed as a "Christian" game even though the Christian themes are pretty obvious in The Neverhood, so I wouldn't bother with CCM stores.

At least you're being objective.
