Nevermind. It seems that either I failed to uninstall the saved games
or that the game creative team knew there would be people like me and
inserted a  default 'save' in the package! :)

When first running the game, the option to 'Continue' is present. When
I selected it, the game opened just a step or two back from where I
had left it when finished. 

What a relief! I downloaded it from GOG and am so happy to be playing
this colorful, light-hearted game again. 
Thanks.
