Short Description:
------------------
WNG version 6.01 teaches the capitals of the nations of the world
and US State capitals in relation to surrounding areas. Creates maps
centered upon world capitals and challenges the user to identify the
city or country. Provides a record of achievement for each user.
Variety of scales and information provided provide flexibility for
users of different learning levels.
Long Description:
-----------------
WNG version 6.01 (The World Name Game) is an educational tool. It
is designed to appeal to a wide variety of students by providing the
learning experience in a game type format. WNG is a graphic program.
It teaches the location of capitals, states, and countries in relation
to each other instead of as isolated units.
WNG know the location of all 50 US state capitals and over 200
national capitals. It will create a variety of maps centered upon any
of these points. WNG can print a list of capitals and states or
countries.
Varying the scale of the map provides a variety of information. At
the smallest area scales the user is provided with little more than
the latitude and longitude of the target city and must respond with
either the country (or State) name or the capital name and the
country. Other settings can provide maps covering almost the entire
U.S.A. and including the names of all surrounding capitals.
A study mode enables the user to select a location from
alphabetical lists and study the map presentation.
In the game mode the user chooses between US capitals, National
capitals, or a combination. The program randomly chooses an
appropriate capital and presents a map of the location and appropriate
surrounding data (based upon other chosen options).

In order to provide a competitive spirit without discouraging
those at lower achievement levels a "High Ten" scoreboard is
maintained for each user. This scoreboard indicates the number of
locations the user attempted to identify, the number correctly
identified, the date and a percentage correctly identified. The record
is maintained for the ten "BEST" (highest percentage) sessions. This
enables users with different skill levels to compete without being
"wiped off the board".

Vendor Update Program:
----------------------
Most non-ASP vendors have standard procedures for acquiring new files.
They get them from other vendors, BBSs, etc. Most authors cannot
afford to mail disks to hundreds (perhaps thousands) of vendors.
However, some vendors prefer to obtain programs directly from the
authors. If you would like to obtain programs directly from us then
please help us to cover the cost.
To receive updates, simply send us a disk with your name,
company name, mailing address, the name of the person we should
contact (such as your disk librarian), the program (or programs)
for which you would like to receive an update. Alternatively you may
send $5 in US funds and a request for an update.
The Vendor Update Program is only intended to help us cover our
expenses in those cases where a vendor desires to obtain the
program directly from us. If you have other standard ways to
obtain programs, then you may not want to use our Vendor Update
Program.
