"You don't know Jack" is one of my mom's favorite games. Recently she got a new G4 iMac and she's running OS X/9.2. I had heard there was a bug with the original version of "You Don't Know Jack" that made it unplayable on anything over OS 9, so I told her not to install it. I was sure there was a new version that would make it playable on her computer (in classic mode). But after running searches and going to Sierra's web site, it doesn't look like "You Don't Know Jack" is made for Mac anymore.

Does anyone know what version is most compatible with OS X/9.2 operating system? Is it available for purchase anywhere?

Thanks,

lw

Part 2 and 3 of the series is out there. Dunno if they work with OS 9 or higher though.

And me on 9.2.2. I made the mistake of introducing my girlfriend to it, now she's addicted and whips my butt every time!

Kinda off topic, but if you like YDKJ, you should checkout the M&M candy website (<a href="http://www.mms.com" target="_blank">www.mms.com</a>) and play 'You Don't Know Color.' A very well done implementation of YDKJ done in Flash (not surprising since Jellyvision helped).
