Krakels ABC: Den Galna Dammsugaren

Krakels ABC: Den Galna Dammsugaren (The Mad Vacuumcleaner) is an educational game for children, focusing on the making sentences using words (in the appropriate language of the release version), for an age group of 7-9 years.

The game is the second of six in the Krakels ABC game series, which is based on characters from a series of children's books by Lennart Hellsing and Poul Ströyer.

In this title, we meet the characters Krakel Spektakel, Opsis Kalopsis and Kusin Vitamin, and an angry vacuum cleaner, who has vacuumed all the words from telephones, books, songs etc. out of the five cities in the fictional country Allemansland. Your mission is to recreate and restore the words to recreate the rhymes and stories that the vacuum cleaner has emptied. The difficulty is increased in steps as the work is progressing with spelling words and creating sentences.

For each task fully completed, there is a song played as a reward, and a book is filled with text about the town. It is also possible to write a story in a book of your own, and also copy text snippets from the original to your own.

At the release time, there was an online feature to optionally download more songs/rhymes from a website 'Barnlandet' through the program, but while this site is now defunct, it is still possible to access these downloads from the Wayback Machines archived copy. Once installed according to the webpage instructions, the songs linked to each town can be played directly from within the game, provided the songs are unlocked by completing of the specific town tasks.
