Way back in 2004 (I think) I bought a 3 game disk by Mumbo Jumbo that included Jewel Quest and I have played that game over and over AND over ever since lol

So yesterday I decided to see if it would install and play in Win7 .... And it plays perfectly !!

I was really impressed laugh

I love the original Jewel Quest, and it runs just fine on my Windows 7 computer too. yes

It's always a delightful surprise, isn't it, when an older game on a newer system just...works! grin

I have Inspector Parker on disc from Mumbo Jumbo which I think is from 2006 and it installed and played fine on my Windows 7.

I hope I'm not jinxing myself saying this, but all of the old casual games that I've tried so far that I have on disc, have run fine on Windows 7. I still have a lot I haven't played yet so I hope that continues to be the case.
