The game was released on March 25, 1987 and gives the player three lives to solve their quest. Lost Word of Jenny is based around the Jenny doll which was popular in Japan during that time. Jenny is a 10½ inch fashion doll produced by Takara since 1982.[3] The doll was originally known as the Takara Barbie, but became "Jenny" in 1986 after Takara ended their licensing agreement with Mattel.
