F.Godmom is a 1991 video game for MS-DOS compatible personal computers in addition to Windows-compatible computers.

Gameplay

Players control a fairy godmother as she rescues all of her friends from evil crab-like monsters. Collecting all the tokens and finding the key will result in the level's exit being revealed. Players use a magic wand to transform the environment around her.[1] The game uses a simple artificial intelligence engine in order to keep the enemies predictable.[2]

The game includes a boss screen; which allows players to play this game while working at an office job. In order to return to the game, players must type in "FG" on the fake MS-DOS command prompt.[3]

Invoking a fantasy-like atmosphere, players must explore the limited space around by climbing on ladders. Jumping is not permitted in the game; similar to the Nintendo Entertainment System video game Bionic Commando.[4]
