Game Overview

Ever see a volcano erupt up close? Explore a floating house in Indonesia? With Compton's Interactive Encyclopedia for the Sega CD, you can visit, see, and listen to just about anything, anywhere. It delivers more than 5,000 photos, 30 videos, 34,000 articles, and a ton of noises that range from JFK delivering a speech to a heart beating. Every article from the book version of the encyclopedia is intact, with multimedia addons that bring topics to life. If there's one drawback to this CD, it's that many of the photos and movies are of poor quality, not to mention really, really old.
