Excerpt from Genesis Game Guide by The Scribe

NAME:             The Great Voyage of Hyoutanjima
AUTHOR/VENDOR:    Sega
RELEASED:         1992
TYPE:             Board game
LANGUAGE:         Japanese

PREMISE:          This whimsical little board game centers on the
                  adventures of a group of marionettes who live on a
                  floating island.  Based on a popular Japanese children's
                  TV show from a while back.

IMPRESSIONS:      Reminds me a lot of some of the shows I used to watch as
                  a kid - oops, there I go, dating myself again (anyone for
                  Kula, Fran, and Ollie?).

VARIATIONS:       The full untranslated Japanese title is Hyoukori
                  Hyoutanjima no Daikoukai.  It is often referred to either
                  as Hyoukori Hyoutanjima or Hyoutanjima no Daikoukai.
                  There is also a Game Gear rendition available.  Be sure
                  to use joystick port 2 for gameplay!
