## Description
_McDonald’s Fairies and Dragons_ is a series of games given away with their
‘Happy Meals’. The full range consists of our fairies Sunflower, Rose, Lily,
and Violet, and four dragons Ice, Earth, Wind and Fire. Each CD gives the
player a separate character which is accessed from a menu bar, as the
collection builds other characters are added to the menu bar until it is
complete. One fairy and one dragon were released each week but, despite the
name, they built into two separate applications – one with four fairies and
one with four dragons.
After an introductory animated sequence the wizard presents the player with a
magic seed. This is planted, watered, given sunshine and love until it grows
into a fairy, which in this case is Sunflower.
There are three flash game activities on Sunflower’s CD:
* The juggling game. Here Sunflower juggles coloured balls, beneath her are pictures of the balls being juggled. The game causes one of them to flash and the player’s task is to click on that ball as quickly as possible. The game then causes another ball to flash and the player clicks on that. This is repeated faster and faster, the longer the player can keep clicking on the correct ball the longer Sunflower will juggle.
* The next activity presents the player with a list of icons representing actions. Click on an icon of Sunflower yawning and she’ll stretch and yawn, click on an apple and she’ll produce one and eat it
* The third activity has Sunflower floating along on a magic leaf, or it could be a feather. The object is to collect fruit which scores points and power ups which keep her in flight longer while avoiding rainclouds and wasps.
When installed this game replaces the player’s desktop picture with a woodland
scene. The games are all mouse controlled and have music and sound effects.
