Gadget: Invention, Travel, & Adventure is a CD-ROM-based adventure game for the Pippin Atmark console.[1]

Releases[]

Gadget: Invention, Travel, & Adventure was first released in November 1993 by Synergy Interactive for the FM Towns, a PC variant from Fujitsu that was popular at the time in Japan.[2][3]

The Pippin port was released in 1996 by Bandai Digital Entertainment in Japan.[1] A memory module with at least 2MB of RAM must be added to the default console configuration for the game to run.[4] It is considered a spiritual continuation of director Haruhiko Shono's work on L-Zone, which itself was also ported to the Pippin platform.[3]

In 1997, an updated special edition was released as Gadget: Past as Future for PlayStation.[5] It was released as a hybrid disc for Macintosh and Windows in Japan by Synergy Works (シナジーワークス) and internationally in 1998 by Cryo Interactive.[6][7] However, this version omits puzzle games from the original and replaces spoken dialog with text.[8] An iOS version, titled iGadget HD, was released by NTT Resonant on March 23, 2011.[9]
