This is such a fun game from my childhood! I had a lot of fun with this game! You are handling this game like a pro! The jumble puzzle in the virtual collection gave me a lot of trouble, but you made it look easy! Well done dude! I am damn impressed!
I've noticed that quite a few of the inventions/discoveries came from France. France happens to be one of my favorite countries, so I find this awesome. ^^
Although they are correct about Leonardo da Vinci designing an early version of the helicopter, the first official practical helicopter was designed by Igor Sikorsky and built in 1939 in Stratford, Connecticut. And they're incorrect about the world's first breakfast Cereal, it was actually Granola, invented in the USA in 1863 by James Caleb Jackson They forgot to mention that Radium was discovered by both Marie Sklodowska Curie and her husband Pierre Curie. Also, to be more precise in what makes radium glow, is the ionizing radiation emitted by radium bromide exciting nitrogen molecules in the air, making it glow
Well, in the case of the quiz, it's Da Vinci as far as they're concerned - but yes, it's not the first modern helicopter. If you really wanna be pedantic, James Caleb Jackson isn't even the first to do that - North Americans had breakfast cereals way before him. However, Jackson and Kelogg were the first modern breakfast cereals. Also poor Henri.
At 1:11:04, although that is true (Monty Monitor is referring to the Health Information Portability & Accountability Act), that is not why the dentist has to leave the room for your x-ray. The real reason is it is dangerous for him or her to be exposed to the radiation produced by the x-ray machine, which is also the same reason why you have to wear a lead jacket during the x-ray.
I've helped Leonardo da Vinci & Thomas Edison in this game & Carmen Sandiego's Great Chase Through Time, I'll never forget da Vinci's Mona Lisa & designs & Edison's phonograph & light bulb.
Upon watching this video, I had found a flaw in Polly's plan for using super glue to invent bubble gum. If everybody's mouth was to be closed shut while chewing bubble gum, how exactly would they be able to eat? By no one being able to eat because of the super glue, Polly would cease to exist, leaving only the one robot to roam the world until she ran out of power.
I think Bubblebot was supposed to be male. Also, not everyone chews bubblegum, and the ingredients would probably change once the first few versions of chewing gum glued people's mouths together, anyway. The human race isn't that stupid.
Given Polly is the daughter of a scientist and already knew all these answers, maybe her school is a school specifically designed to educate child prodigies.
1:05 The reason the inventor of the first helicopter didn't build it is not because of spilled spaghetti sauce, it's because a big engine to power the helicopter hadn't been invented yet. 25:28 Frozen worms, ice cream, and cold-water salmon? Yuck! That's disgusting! Breakfast cereal is made of grains. 52:52 AA Batteries don't make radium glow. It's nuclear energy that makes it glow. 1:17:59 The first chewing gum wasn't made of super glue, it's made of chicle, a natural tree gum by the ancient Mayans. 1:40:46 A sad clown on black velvet? That's not right! The first painting were of early animals.
At least one non-Kellogg's game reveals the origin of such well known cereal brand and marks it as the first one of all. Nearly a surreptitous advertising. Copyright disclaimer didn't embellish when it said that there are other trademarks in this game.
There's another point in the walkthrough where I completely overlooked an ingredient in the kitchen, and made humor out of it by making the thing I missed "talk" using text.
One thing that bothers me about this game is that the questions posed in the Transquizzer-- the ones Polly gives her ridiculous answers to-- don't get proper answers. The answers are mentioned in passing during the Wheel of Knowledge segments, but get no special attention and are easy to miss. The whole thing feels a little lacking in closure as a result. Here's how I'd fix it: after retrieving each robot, Botley would pull up the Transquizzer again and replay the quiz question that was the focus of the mission you just completed-- but this time, the teacher would reject Polly's joke answer and explain the correct one.
Believe it or not, this actually is implemented! I never remembered to show it in the walkthrough (my bad), but if you click on a question that you've already been through before, it'll go how it originally did, but after Polly gives her joke answer, Mrs. Winkle will then explain to her that it's wrong and why it is. In addition, the written joke answer will be crossed out with the right answer in place. The only thing missing is that it's optional to look at this, not mandatory, but it's there!
@@MrEightThreeOne is it still possible to change the number disk so that you can see all the questions once you're done with them, not just the five of them?

Anyone notice Polly frowns when she sends the explorer out of the lock when you get something wrong? She does it when she gives you the puzzle in the virtual collection game, too. It's like she doesn't like prolonging your missions.
+Yotipo MMM! Delicious. When you go to the store to buy cereal, see if you notice the last name of the man who invented it (e.g. Kellogg's) written on it. It was based on William Keith Kellogg who first invented 🌽 Flakes in 1894. Joey the 🐓 appeared on the box in the old days as a mascot for the roasted product.My mom uses this tasty cereal for adding a little bit of crunch to the 🥔es that she prepares annually on Easter.
A robot based on Amelia Earhart is completely different to the real thing disappearing. Also, you shouldn't have to cheat on the observatory. The first twelve times,, you just have to go through the zodiac signs in order. The next time you played after this episode, the answer had to be Libra.

Amelia Airbot is a play on Amelia Earhart. If you see ♌ the 🦁 in Hercules (Disney version) in the 0️⃣ To Hero number, he'll resemble Scar from The 🦁 King. Pretty kitty if you ask me. 😂! The problem is Disney adapted him from the Neamean 🦁 in Greek mythology. Hey Mr. Eight-Three-One, I roast vegetables in the dual oven every night for dinner. My dad advised me to try it and so I did. I see the "Roast" setting on the dual oven we have at home and use it to cook them nightly. The thing is, I wear black 🦓 print Bebe prescription 👓 to help me see where to find the cooking settings on the oven I have at home which is located in our kitchen.
I don't find bees scary. Actually I find them cute, even bumblebees and carpenter bees. Yeah they sting, but they're also little flying fuzzballs. I even find the angry bee in Disney's Water Babies cute, you should see his little grumpy face! ^^
Why do you say that? I feel like I generally tried to avoid skipping dialogue and only did so when things got really repetitive, which isn't what you do in a speedrun. Also, I generally played the game at my own pace.
I would leave the sad clown alone think about it she just advanced the world of art by centuries but then again no renisance art however we wouldn't be starting at naked statues im talking about you david seriously put some pants on its not that impressive. in case you cant figure it out im just trolling people cuz its cool

It is only in my adult years that I realize Polly, with her radium plan, was willing to give people cancer just for kicks.

I doubt 3rd graders would know the answers to most of those quiz questions.
