The unreleased Mac II version of The Fool's Errand was going to have all-new solutions to every puzzle, and a puzzle for every story segment.

It was also going to have these INCREDIBLE illustrations accompanying every puzzle, with richer details than the original game's. Also color!

I already think the OG Fool's Errand is one of the best puzzle games ever made, and the prettiest Macintosh game ever made, but this version would have been absolutely next level.

More art from the unreleased Mac II CD-ROM version of The Fool's Errand. This one appears to be a much more detailed version of the art from the original game's cathedral->chapel transition puzzle.

More art from the unreleased Mac II CD-ROM version of The Fool's Errand. This one seems to be for the hierophant, whose chapter I don't recall having any art in the original version.

More art from the unreleased Mac II CD-ROM version of The Fool's Errand. This one seems to be for the transition to the Devil. I don't think this puzzle was in the original game.

More art from the unreleased Mac II CD-ROM version of The Fool's Errand. These seem to be the tarot cards from the original game's wheel of fortune puzzle, but in color and in much richer detail.

More art from the unreleased Mac II CD-ROM version of The Fool's Errand. This one is just an enhanced version of the art from the original game's "Ladies enjoy rowdy jigs of yore" puzzle.

I am SUCH a sucker for silhouette styled pixel art in video games.
