It is a conversion of a game originally released for the Apple II, Commodore 64 and MS-DOS platforms in 1989.

These mini games include Bumper Cars, Funhouse, Tunnel of Love, Duck Hunt and Space Ride.
[edit] NES port
The NES version of the game is unique from its computer counterparts in that it has a on-screen hearts designating hit detection, but eliminates the two-player mode. The player is required to complete each level with a specific character. The initial levels, which you can complete in any order, are as follows;
Kermit the Frog rides an inner tube down a river, Fozzie Bear must escape a Fun House of desserts, Gonzo flies a space ship and Animal drives a bumper car. After completing these initial levels, the player then controls Kermit the Frog, armed with a feather, in Dr. Grump's castle.
