Sorry to have to correct ya, but there was both a regular II and IIGS version. 
I indeed played the IIGS version and remember there being an Easter Egg in the 
game (programmed in part by Bill Heineman (sp?)).  For whatever reason, he was 
fascinated with hamburgers, so if you typed that in (or something else maybe) 
a screen popped up that had a hamburger.  Go figure!

I believe it was published by Activision.  The IIGS version had a great MIDI 
intro (at least I thought so).  I remember wandering into the forest and 
eating the mushrooms as well.  Never finished the game either.  You needed to 
find Gramps I thought.

If you give me a precise question, I may be able to answer it.

Good luck and post here to let me know (email address of course is wrong).

See ya,
