Pros:  None

Cons:  None

Other Thoughts:  If you like those animated cartoonish helpers this program might be up your alley. It is not bad for free, but there is only a total of 4 voices. A wizard who sounds like MS Mike, a Genie who sounds to me like MS Sam, a Parrot who sounds too tenor and a Robot. No female voices. The character can be dragged about the screen but serves no purpose than eye-candy. For this to be GREAT the developer should include more voices, make the actor optional, and stop bugging about a PDF read I don't wish to download.
