Arithmetic Trainer
by Opal Productions Software
Music, plus sound effects, plus good animation, equals mathematical fun!
Clear visuals help teach the concepts of borrow and carry. A moving train
increases in length every time your child's skills improve. Teach your
children to add - the fun way! Requires Visual Basic Run-Time v3.0
(VBRUN300.DLL), included on the new utility collection, and Windows v3.1.
NOTE: Visual Basic Run-Time v3.0 (VBRUN300.DLL) must be in your Windows
directory.
Dinosaur Predators v1.0
by Alive Software
What was it like to be a dinosaur? Find out in this never-ending adventure
in the fascinating world of prehistoric nature. Start by choosing the
animal you want to be. Then begin moving across your habitat. Collect as
many energy tokens as possible by capturing your prey. Be careful, though!
You must also avoid predators and outsmart your competitors.
All animals are placed randomly on different screens. This means each game
is unique and unpredictable - you'll be challenged every time you play. The
rules of the game are based on factual prey and predator relationships -
this is a realistic simulation of prehistoric food chain ecology. Choose
your animal from "Jurassic Dinosaurs," "Terror in the Swamp," "Oviraptor
the Egg-Thief" and "Ice-Age Mammals." Each group has three difficulty
levels. This one has all the features - score-keeping, on-line help, easy
icon-based input and extensive information on every animal and plant.
"Dino-buff," a prehistoric quiz, is also included. Requires EGA/VGA.
Options: Mouse, Adlib, SoundBlaster. Uses your PC-speaker for sound effects.
An incredible educational adventure!

by Burnham Park Software, Inc.
The classic word game comes to Windows! Can you guess the word before the

children both enjoy this game, while perfecting their spelling and
vocabulary skills. Requires Windows v3.1.
Scavenger Hunt v1.0
by ATS Software
