Reading opens up a mountain full of possibilities. It is truly a treasure, especially when it comes to childhood games like this one. I cut out part of the middle to keep the video under ten minutes.
+Brad Morgan I'm 31 and remember this game as well, played it back in the early 90s. I've been trying to find this game for years as I couldn't remember what it was called!
This and Zoombinis were my first games when I was maybe 3 in 1999. Educational games back then were so amazing because regular games were being made on the same budget, so something like this was just as solid as anything else you could play.
Quite easily. You can just keep throwing coins to find the treasures (either just checking everywhere or working out the clues from the items you find, kinda working backwards) and catching elves when you run out. It may take a little longer, but otherwise perfectly easy to do
31 years old here. Just got a new washing machine that makes boops and beeps everytime you press a button. It was reminding me of something but I couldn't think of what. This was it. Gonna download, finish a 25 year legacy.
Oh man, I remember our "Computer class" back in elementary school consisting of playing this (and Mavis Beacon) for about 90 minutes. Those were the days.
***** Midnight Rescue, most likely. Same main character from the same company, except it was robots inside a school. I had it one my first computer running MS-DOS.
finally figured out what this game was. I used to play it when I was 3 but I didn't know how to read and didn't have anyone to help me so it took a lot to figure out how to get nets and randomly guess correct answers.
Well, you also do it over and over to get higher star ranks - near the start of the vid the helper butterfly says he needs 52 more treasures to earn the 6-star rank
This game stuck in my memory. Forgot the name, just remembered the premise, seeing it now I realize why it's stuck with me. Think it should be every kids first game.
This just unlocked a core memory. I’ve been trying to remember what this game was for years from vague memories. But all those little sounds were hiding in my brain! Amazing to see it again.
I'm 27 and I used to play this every day at school when we first got school computers and I was in 4th grade. So depressing, I want to go back to grade 4
HOLY FUCKING SHIT I FOUND IT! D: I can't believe what I'm looking at. I've literally been describing this game to friends for about a decade, desperately seeking help trying to remember what the fuck it was. It'd been so long, I was almost certain I'd imagined it. It's amazing to see it, and to read all the comments here of people who've been going through the same personal dilemma. A piece of my childhood has just come back to me, as if from some lovely, distant dimension.
Wow! I used to play this game so much after school. I remember I used to tell my folks I was doing homework on the computer, until the music got me busted. And the music... :)
Fortunately, this game can be downloaded from www.myabandonware.com. I just downloaded it yesterday and it works great. Then, download DosBox. That's all you need to play it. It will work on Windows, i'm not sure how to make it work on mac. I hope you play it again :)
OH MY GOD. This brings back all those memories of me playing this back in preschool, kindergarten and first grade. This game TRULY DEFINES part of my very childhood.
I am so fucking happy right now. I have been trying to find this game for years! I described it to friends and they didnt know what i was talking about. I tried googling it for so long and not finding anything close to this game. I really cannot believe I finally found this game. I played this game so much at school when I was a child and absolutely loved it. I am so happy seeing this game again, it brings back so many memories!
Played this game, a "3D" Chess game, a Rabbit math/word Game, & solitaire on my family's Windows 3 computer when I was little. *Thanks for the memories* 🙂
I was just watching a BGR video and something in the video reminded me of this game that I used to play with my friend all the time in the 90s. Searched Google for "90s mountain game" and here I am. The music instantly brought me back.
wow!! this is so nostalgic for me!!! I played this game when I was like 6 years old on a floppydisc in my parents computer in the 90's!! Brings back memories!
This was my favorite game! Played hours on this game!! They really need to come out with a collectors PC game on CD of all the awesome game from the 80s to the late 90s that would be awesome!! Definitely the best games ever.
Wow, I havent seen this game since i was 6, I just remembered the name of it for the first time in about 18 years. It is just as i remembered after all these years. I can now die a happy man.
lol This was my fave game as a kid. I used to get so mad at the elves. The sound that would occur when an elf would get some coins used to make me SOOO mad lol.
I used to play this game when I was about 4-5 at my aunties house, for the last 20 years I’ve been trying to remember the name of this game, thank you good sir for scratching that itch.
John Ralph How do you own it? I used to have it for an old 90s computer and got rid of it to upgrade to a modern one so now I can't play it anymore. Do you know of a way to get it on a modern computer or anything?
I use to answer randomly at the questions and got to a stage where I would recognize the answers ang get them all right...Best game ever...what an atmosphere
Oh god I used to play this game all the time at school when I was little. The best was one summer when my family was picked to take home one of the school computers over the summer because then my sister and I could play this all day and finally get to the end. ^^
I think this was one of the first games I ever played, and I don't think i ever beat it! I remember they had a series of games... one was in a highschool, and one was about building cars...
I'm almost 30 years old and I remember this game like it was yesterday
Me too! I remember shuffling through all my dad's floppy discs to find this and play it after school :)
+Brad Morgan I'm 31 and remember this game as well, played it back in the early 90s. I've been trying to find this game for years as I couldn't remember what it was called!
I was just listening to Google Music and the song came on and it was so familiar! I googled Solfeggietto and found this! I loved this game!
This and troggle
@@xXNSYNCLoverxX *disks*
wow dude wow. this is one of my first memories of I life. I played this game when I was 4
Right? This and lemmings were like the first games I ever played.
I was about to comment the exact same thing, but you beat me to it. By four years, no less. How is 2014?
This and Zoombinis were my first games when I was maybe 3 in 1999. Educational games back then were so amazing because regular games were being made on the same budget, so something like this was just as solid as anything else you could play.
@@kaibaCorpHQ Strange.... this and lemmings were also the first games I ever played.
john basedow same man!!!! Never looked back
I have no idea how I managed to play this game without knowing how to read
Quite easily. You can just keep throwing coins to find the treasures (either just checking everywhere or working out the clues from the items you find, kinda working backwards) and catching elves when you run out. It may take a little longer, but otherwise perfectly easy to do
For some reason, this seemed way more high tech when I was a kid lol those graphics used to look like CoD to me.
It took me soooo long to beat the game and then i only found 1 treasure lol
Haha
Same! And I remembered SNOW!
Same, I remember it looking better. I wonder if there's a slightly newer version or something. lol.
This is causing an extreme nostalgic crisis right now. Incredible. Thank you for uploading this!
SAME!
I just spent a day trying to find the name of this game. Bless you!
I spent 2 minutes finding it. I knew it had mountain in the name but I didn't know the other word
Ikr. I used to play this game so much!
@Danny M *2nd*
I spent 20 fucking years…

Me too
First we had to do type to learn and then we got game time
+Joseph Mostarda Same here! I never really thought about it but I suppose many schools had these games.
@@americanidol434 math dodger
The ladder-climbing section with the villain lunging at you through the windows always freaked me the fuck out, lmao.
awakened_link do you know what happens if his arm happens to touch you as you're climbing the ladders?
I think it knocks you off the ladder. I think it's shown in this video at 7:33, but that might have been the player trying to dodge by going left.
Huh. So this is where my love of classical music started.
Same here too!!! I did not realize this until you said it!
Wow, this game was deep buried in my memory that I specifically can't remember much, but can feel it. Love the chiptune Bach.
darkNiGHTS0 i
words cannot express how happy seeing this again makes me. I just watching him walk.
finally figured out what this game was. I used to play it when I was 3 but I didn't know how to read and didn't have anyone to help me so it took a lot to figure out how to get nets and randomly guess correct answers.
who would dare give this a thumbs down?! This is awesome! 80s babies stand up!
They are jealous they missed out!
Those are Morty Maxwells minions that are giving the thumbs down
Geezus....it seems so short now. It took me so long to find the treasures when I was a kid. But there's only three stages.
Well, you also do it over and over to get higher star ranks - near the start of the vid the helper butterfly says he needs 52 more treasures to earn the 6-star rank

Oh my god I couldn't remember what this was called for the longest time.
this is like a primal memory. these games were magical
I used to play this when I was like 4 and I only have one memory of it, I'm now 16 and just found it and I remember this very vaguely
I'm 27 and I used to play this every day at school when we first got school computers and I was in 4th grade. So depressing, I want to go back to grade 4
I'm 34. It's been 25 years since I started playing this game
i used to play this in the 3rd grade when had computer class, now i’m in highschool and i miss it lol
I FINALLY FOUND IT!! I used to absolutely love this game growing up in the 90s
We found it together 😂
i can't believe this game is so short! i remember it took me hours to beat when i was young!
All I had to do was google "computer game from the 90s, guy finds coins." Wow, I remember it looking so different!
lol i typed in 90s pc game with net and found it instantly on reddit
An absolute banger of a game. I can't count how much I played this game. Absolute nostalgia.
HOLY FUCKING SHIT I FOUND IT! D:

I'm about to turn 25 I haven't played this since I was 7 but I miss it so much. I miss the 90 s.
I literally didn't think I'd ever see this game again lol, think it was around 96 or 97 I played it for the first time. God this takes me back
Arnold Cloer I first played it in like 2003 or 4.
i never realized how popular this was and how it introduced many of us to video games. amazing!
Wow! I used to play this game so much after school. I remember I used to tell my folks I was doing homework on the computer, until the music got me busted. And the music... :)
I miss this game so much!!!
I wish I could still play this game. I remember playing it when I was very young. I'm 30 now.
Fortunately, this game can be downloaded from www.myabandonware.com. I just downloaded it yesterday and it works great. Then, download DosBox. That's all you need to play it. It will work on Windows, i'm not sure how to make it work on mac. I hope you play it again :)
SOOOO MUCH NOSTALGIA!!!

Played this game, a "3D" Chess game, a Rabbit math/word Game, & solitaire on my family's Windows 3 computer when I was little. *Thanks for the memories* 🙂
And thanks to Internet Archive, we can now play this again.

Holy shit man! This is my childhood completely. I spent a lot of time on this game
Traesure Mountain, Math Blaster series and Reader Rabbit 1, 2, 3 were the best educational games of my time
I played this game all the time when I was a kid. It was the first game I ever played on the computer. =) I looooved it! Man I miss it.

My older sister Vicki & I used to have this game on my Dad’s computer back when we were little.
My childhood, this, reader rabbit, and those interactive storybooks from Disney. Oh, and I am still haunted by Adiboo >.
I loved this game dearly in the early 90s. It felt magical. I didn’t like the questions though. 😅
Oh man i loved this game.. classic.
This brings me back to elementary school art class aka computer game hour. So nostalgic lol thanks!
Wow, I havent seen this game since i was 6, I just remembered the name of it for the first time in about 18 years. It is just as i remembered after all these years. I can now die a happy man.
I loved this game as a kid and looking back i can't figure out why lol
That ladder transfer, holy crap
Around 40 & still love this game! Wish i still had it.
I wish I could get this as a ringtone!!! So many memories!
oh got so many memz growing up. I spent hours on this game. lol
This was one of the game me and seven brothers and sisters gathered around... Hitting the sneaky elf with the edge of the net was always fun. lol
Wow! I had forgotten about this game until now! This just took me back so hard.
Just thought of this game and my brother remembered the name. What a fantastic time I had playing this back in the day.
Me too. My cousin had this game on his computer and I would play it whenever we were over.
God the nostalgia! I remember this game and the music so well. We used to buy these games on floppy disks at the supermarket of all places.
That's so cool! I remember I got this for my birthday--I think I was 10 or 11. LOVED IT!
7:00 dude someone was going ham on that keyboard man..
i am 25 yrs old and remember i played this game in 2nd grade at school
That is a super memory you have!
lol This was my fave game as a kid. I used to get so mad at the elves. The sound that would occur when an elf would get some coins used to make me SOOO mad lol.
What a classic! And they chose some excellent classical music to go along with the game (CPE Bach, Beethoven, JS Bach).
man, this was the first video game I ever played on my grandma's computer on MS-DOS. Brings back good memories. I'm 34 now.
I loved this game back when I was a kid, too bad I wasn't smart enough to solve alot of the problems lol
The theme had no business going this hard.
THIS MUSIC MAKES ME SO HAPPY!!!!!
I used to play this game when I was about 4-5 at my aunties house, for the last 20 years I’ve been trying to remember the name of this game, thank you good sir for scratching that itch.
Dude me my brothers and cousins use to play the crap out of this at my grandparents house, this is the best I want this game!!!
Oh man, I used to play this on my IBM 286. Loved it.
And now I own it.
John Ralph How do you own it? I used to have it for an old 90s computer and got rid of it to upgrade to a modern one so now I can't play it anymore. Do you know of a way to get it on a modern computer or anything?
Ebay ;o)
Indeed...I wish I still had my copy of Reader Rabbit 1,2, and 3
I use to answer randomly at the questions and got to a stage where I would recognize the answers ang get them all right...Best game ever...what an atmosphere
I still remember my mom getting this for me. Good times.
Wow this brings me back. Used to play this with my bother who is now in college. Such an awesome game
I'm only 13 and play this game. I love this game and other games like it. I love these graphics the best
ME. TOO. I could not for the LIFE of me remember what this game was called...then I find this, hear the MUSIC. AHH. NOSTALGIA.
If you've never played Treasure Mountain then your childhood sucked! This was the best!
Last time I saw this game being played was 15 years ago...when I was 7...wow the memories
OMG .....nostalgia and I was only like 5 or 6 when I first played it!
That brings back memories.. :) I can't believe I still remembered the name of the game after so many decades.
I have the three pack of these games I used to play them all the time who knew learning could be fun..
This brings back memories. I remember playing this at 3 or 4 and it was my favorite thing
I feel like I'm 4 again and I want to play this so badly... LOL
Good crap. I played this game in my elementary school computer lab when I was like SEVEN. Talk about flashbacks.
OH MAN. I REMEMBER THIS GAME.
Thanks so much for putting it up!!!!
THE LADDER PART ADASAF
That part was always so intense! The music got me pumped.
Loved this game when I was a kid.
I remember this game. I still have the original 3.5 inch and 5.25 inch floppy disks to this game.
Going into the ice cave for the first time blew my mine!!
This was my favorite game to play in school. Thanks for the memories.
Oh god I used to play this game all the time at school when I was little. The best was one summer when my family was picked to take home one of the school computers over the summer because then my sister and I could play this all day and finally get to the end. ^^
