Color by Number (also titled Double Trouble) is a 1997-2000 builder's
nightmare game created by Louise Hope.
* * *
There is often some confusion with Louise's game titles because the
original World Builder versions of some of her games have slightly
different titles than the later non-WB versions. The colored, classic
and OS X, versions of this game are titled Muddy Water. The original
World Builder version is called The Canal District.
* * *
Louise Hope was one of the most talented writers of World Builder
games in the 90's and early 2000's, pushing the capabilities of World
Builder.

Compatibility
Architecture: 68k
Color by Number (DL#1) and Double Trouble (DL#2) were tested in
Basilisk II with System 7.5.5 (and they open without crashing), so
they should also work in Mini vMac II with Systems 7.0.1-7.1.1 (and
maybe even with System 6.0.8).
* * *
None of the above versions are FAT, so they will only work in
SheepShaver with Mac OS 8.x.
