Long Description:
-----------------
MERLIN'S MATH v1.04 <ASP>
Episodes 1 & 2 of the Merlin's Math series teaches the mechanics of
multiplying multiple digit numbers, up to 5 digits by 5 digits, and
long division. Starting as an apprentice magician, the student gains
in power by solving math problems of increasing difficulty, all the time
racing against a dripping water clock.
In Episode 1 (multiplication), the beginning magician is required to
set all intermediate product digits and carry digits. As the student rises
through the levels of sorcerer and wizard, the student is granted
additional powers and privileges that enable him or her to achieve
higher scores. Episode 2 does the same thing with long division.
Points are awarded on the basis of speed, accuracy, and difficulty
level of problem.
Requires 286 or higher, mouse, and VGA.
