Mia's Reading Adventure: The Search for Grandma's Remedy is a 1998 video game developed and published by Montreal-based studio Kutoka Interactive.[1] The game is aimed at children age 5.[1]
Reception[edit]
PC Magazine rated the game a 3 of 5 saying "Mia, though very well done will not do this for younger kids. For the older set, however - and especially for the girls - Mia should be a lot of fun."[3]
Macworld rated the game a 4 of 5 saying "The dazzling artwork and sound complement the learning tools as children ages five to nine try to decipher where Mia should go next"[4]
Game Vortex rated the game a 9 of 10 saying "If the engine were a bit smoother -- jumpiness on a 450 MHz machine is just frightening, considering the minimum system is a P100 -- this game would be practically perfect in both presentation and usefulness. As it is, Mia: The Search for Grandma’s Remedy is still a great game, marred by a few speed problems that detract only slightly from the enjoyment of a well-put-together edutainment title"[5]
PC Alamode Magazine said "All in all, not a bad program for the kids and you may be quite pleased with it"[6]
Sales[edit]
The game sold 40,000 copies by April 1999.[1]
