Every release after retitled it to the more familiar one; many other subject-specific JumpStart games followed suit on this change in nomenclature.Even later releases of the game updated the logo used in the game's title screen, which curiously shortened the title to simply 'JumpStart Reading'.OriginalNewThe seriesWindows.Mac OS Classic.Mac OS X.
