The Muppet CD-ROM: Muppets Inside is a PC computer game based on The Muppets franchise produced by Starwave in 1996. The title is a play on Intel's advertising slogan, "Intel Inside." The game's plot consists of several Muppets characters getting trapped inside a computer, and Bunsen sending Kermit and Fozzie Bear into the computer to rescue them.
As players rescue the Muppets, they encounter seven "Muppetized" games:
Muppets Inside's gameplay contains over an hour of new audio and video footage, as well as five new songs and classics from The Muppet Show. The game also contains a bonus "Muppetizer'" feature that provides custom cursors, sounds and wallpapers. The game's CD-ROM also came packaged with a 6x6 inch, 30-page booklet with Henson history, character profiles, game instructions, and credits.[citation needed]

The editors of Computer Games Strategy Plus nominated Muppets Inside as their pick for 1996's best "traditional" game, but the award ultimately went to Power Chess.[2]
In a retrospective review, PC Gamer praised the humor of the videos and game concepts, while criticizing the tedium of the small number of games.[3]
