three years ago I went to a thrift store and i had found a japanese game called  玩具メーカー on a japanase stall.<br />I asked to the japanese guy to translate the word and he said:"This is Toy Maker a game for all the kids".<br />I decided to buy it for only twenty dollars and three hours after I wanted to use the game but I moved house and I forgot it.<br />Yesterday while I search my old game boy in an old backpack I found the game and I decide today to try the game but it's for DOS.<br />I downloaded DOS Box (a DOS emulator) and I installed the game on the emulator.<br />I made a screenshot of the splash menu image, it’s look like a low quality images, with the name of the product, the copyright date and the name of the creator “Tsunayoshi Toshimichi”.<br />When I pressed Return button I seen the real main menu, with three buttons:<br />Start Game – it doesn’t work anymore<br />Load game – the game crashes<br />Options – a options menu can be opened<br />When I opened the Options menu I seen other three buttons:<br />Sounds – when I open it, the game stuck on a black screen<br />Controls – the game crashes<br />Exit to DOS – close the game<br />I can’t play with this game, I tried a lot of methods but it stuck on the main menu…<br />If anyone can make this game start contact me at Kenjiromurai8@gmail.com<br />'''''UPDATE N°1'''''<br />One day after I buyed the game, I was back to the japanase stall, but the Japanese guy and his stall had disappeared.<br />

'''''***This article was copied and pasted here from a japanese forum, becouse the original one was deleted***'''''

(Sorry for my bad english)

I contacted that guy and he answered:

'''''"Dear Matteo,'''''
'''I had read your email and yes, a guy on the internet has contacted me and I decided to send to him a copy of the game.<br />I waited at least two month.<br />Later having waited all this time he has contacted me with this email:<br />'Hi,<br />I have created a executable of you game... It can be played from windows without an emulator but it isn't finished.'''

'''Bye.''''

'''Keep attention, the sounds in the game are a little troublesome and repetitive, graphicses are not of the better ones.'''
The game does not have much sense, I have not played there very much but it is a game which puts the anxiety.<br />Tomorrow i'll give to you a copy of the game converted by the guy, but now i can send some screenshots.

'''Good luck..."'''

There was an enclosure in the email, a .rar file, with some screenshots of the game:

'''UPDATE 1: '''Kenjiro finally sent me a copy of the game.



'''I uploaded it [https://mega.co.nz/#!RV5iGLKK!ZJNDqz994Vxx5XFEqhyEFWC0REoAHAXsKhPOR8-rYHU here] .'''



I played the game, but i don't completed it because in some points it crashes.

However, there are various pathways, and i didn't explored them all. I need help to complete this game, so feel free to modify this page and add all informations you find!

1)  http://toymakerporting.comyr.com/

2)  http://toymakerporting.comyr.com/1958/index.html

The first page says that the website is closed.

The second requires a username and a password. I am searching for it, but with poor results.

The case is still open...
