Like the first issue (reviewed in our November 1992 issue), this video magazine offers home computer enthusiasts a chance to see how a particular piece of software looks and operates before they plunk down $50 or more. Software covered includes "Fun With Colors," an electronic coloring book which allows viewers to create their own picture books; "The Oregon Trail," an educational game about pioneer traveling; "College Explorer," which aids students in selecting a college, "Bodyworks," the popular human anatomy program; "Klotski," a new puzzle game for Windows; and "On-Disk" monthly, a software magazine. A total of 14 software packages are profiled in this basic, but informative, software guide. Recommended. (Available from: Bear Productions, 264 Sydney St., Cambridge, MA 02139; (617) 547-7989.)

Star Ratings
As of March 2022, Video Librarian has changed from a four-star rating system to a five-star one. This change allows our reviewers to have a wider range of critical viewpoints, as well as to synchronize with Google’s rating structure. This change affects all reviews from March 2022 onwards. All reviews from before this period will still retain their original rating. Future film submissions will be considered our new 1-5 star criteria.
