Volcanoes: Life on the Edge is a 1996 interactive CD-ROM published by Corbis. [1] It recounts the expeditions by photojournalist Roger Russmeyer to volcanoes around the world. [2]
Discover Magazine deemed it a satisfying title about Earth science. [3] Technology Review deemed the title both the most conventional and arresting of Corbis' output. [4] Newsweek described the project as "well-wrought". [5] The Washington Post deemed it a first-rate CD-ROM documentary. [6] The Sydney Morning Herald disliked the "humdrum photo-essays about low-key eruptions". [7]
MacUser praised the well-organised interface [8] while Popular Science enjoyed the "stunning" photographs. [9] MacWorld gave the game 7.2/10. [10]
The game was announced in December 1995. [11]
