Clicking on the book on the shelf starts the game. Clicking on objects in the room causes some cool little animations to play out. After that, you see the player character getting ready for bed.

The beginning of the game allows you to choose your player's avatar, which is a nice touch. Unlike in other Sierra adventures, saving the game is not required, as every time you solve a rhyme, the game autosaves for the player. The only thing a child may have trouble with is that some items are inside buildings, not all of which have an obvious place to enter. Of course, this doesn't stop an adult turning it on and having a bit of fun just don't expect this game to take more than half an hour to solve. The game revolves around solving mixed-up nursery rhymes, none of which are very difficult for an adult, but for children, this game's target market, it's a fun and enjoyable adventure. Mixed-Up Mother Goose - VGA is an upgraded version of Mixed-Up Mother Goose (1987), created in 1991 by Sierra On-Line, Inc. This version has a new set of graphics, but more "visibly," a redone soundtrack that has all of the nursery rhymes played in different musical styles.

This is another updated version of Mixed-Up Mother Goose. This is a totally rewritten version of the original Mixed Up Mother Goose, featuring enhanced MIDI soundtrack, VGA graphics, complete digitized speech along with improved animations and a few other goodies.
