A discontinued though somewhat infamous entry in the ''[[
As its subtitle might suggest, this game is remembered for its [[Nightmare Fuel]], which was presumably a factor in its discontinuation. Okay, the plot: You are a fourth-grade student who has missed one day of school. While you were absent, the substitute teacher was a [[Wicked Witch]] named Ms. Grunkle who [[Baleful Polymorph|turned all your classmates into monsters]] and imprisoned them on a creepy island where everything looks like it was designed by [[Tim Burton]]. So now [[
Essentially, it's a [[Defanged Horrors]] version of a [[Survival Horror]] game. You can see a [[Walkthrough]] starting [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Upx8ZCALzR4 here] and a review noting its scariness [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-vUh_PZ5SK4 here].

* [[Alphabet Soup Cans]]
* [[Beauty to Beast]]: many of the children, especially Tiffany.
* [[Bigger
* [[Difficulty Levels]]
* [[The Dragon]]: Repsac with Ms. Grunkle as the [[Big Bad]]
Line 25 ⟶ 24:
* [[The Lost Woods]]
* [[Medium Blending]]: The game constantly flips between CGI animation and 2-D animation. For the most part, the main game is pre-rendered CGI while the mini games are 2-D. The main characters (Flap, Ms. Grunkle, etc.) are always CGI. Your classmates look CGI in the opening sequence, but they are 2-D animated in the yearbook and Madame Pomreeda's [[Crystal Ball]].
* [[Missing Episode]]: This version of ''Jump Start 4th Grade'' has not been officially available since [[The Nineties]]. If you want a copy, [[
* [[Our Vampires Are Different]]: They are [[Classical Movie Vampire|Classical Movie Vampires]] who have to [[Cool and Unusual Punishment|solve long division problems]] in order to make it into their coffins.
* [[Pirate Tropes]]: The geography activity is pirate-themed, so it includes a number of these:
** [[Boarding Party]]: Implied. If you lose one of the cannon battle mini-mini games mentioned below, your ammo and supply counts go down.
** [[Instant Plunder, Just Add Pirates]]: Well, pirates make at least as much sense as the Egyptian pyramid.
** [[Pirate]]: Type 1. The pirates are your enemies, and if you run into one of their ships, you'll have to sink it in a cannon battle mini-mini game.
*** [[Ghost Pirate]]: Possibly. You don't actually see the pirates themselves, but their ships are all white and ghostly. Oddly, your ship is too.
Line 42 ⟶ 41:
* [[Sinister Silhouettes]]: How the children are shown being changed into monsters in the opening [[Cutscene]].
* [[Themed Cursor]]: As you can see from the screenshot, the game makes the cursor look spooky and ghostly.
* [[Updated Rerelease]]: Two years after its initial release, the game was
* [[Warp Whistle]]
