AnnaTommy is a 1995 education game developed by Viridis Corporation and published by IVI Publishing for Windows.[1] It was one of 5 titles they released with IVI.[2]

The game was created using an authoring system called CyberCad,[3] and used early 3D software Infini-D.[4]

By April 1994 it was due for release that fall.[5]

NY Daily News deemed it "a nicely done CD rip-off of the old "Incredible Journey" movie".[6] Los Angeles Times felt it was "reminiscent of some ‘60s sci-fi flicks"[7] and that its educational content came across as an afterthought detached from the gameplay.[8]
