What Amanda Stories is
Amanda Stories is an adventure game developed by Amanda Goodenough and released in 1991. It is available on Mac and PC (Microsoft Windows).
The premise, in the publisher's words
Amanda Stories was the one of the very first "point-and-click" programs for kids. Not only is there a strong narrative--in ten separate stories Inigo explores his house, his dream, the outside world, and Your Faithful Camel ventures as far afield as the North Pole--but where you click actually determines the course of the story. As children (ages 3 and up) move intuitively through one adventure after another, the combination of color animations, great sound effects, original music, and a variety of endings challenges and delights them.
