Play Follow The Reader Online
You read a sentence, pick key words like "dig" or "water," and watch Mickey actually do it—simple at first, then suddenly you're orchestrating his whole little pixelated life.
Follow the Reader was part of the MS-DOS Classic Games lineup in 1992, published by Walt Disney Computer Software. It arrived during a time when educational and adventure titles for kids were common, and it fit right in with its focus on reading and interaction.
You guide Mickey Mouse through a series of scenes by reading sentences and selecting key words like "dig" or "water" to make him perform actions. The main goal is to help Mickey complete tasks, often involving exploration and simple problem solving. The game progresses screen by screen, with each new area presenting fresh verbs to choose and obstacles to overcome. It starts gently but gradually asks for more thoughtful input, and the pacing stays relaxed even when the challenges pick up. It feels like gently directing a cheerful, responsive story.
Each game uses different controls, most DOS games use the keyboard arrows. Some will use the mouse , "Alt" ,"Enter" and "Space bar".
