Operation Neptune

Another excellent game in The Learning Company's outstanding "Super Solvers" series, Operation Neptune is a math edutainment title similar to Treasure Mountain, but aimed at older kids. As with other Super Solvers games, Operation Neptune combines fun platform action with educational puzzles so well integrated that kids will have fun without realizing that they're learning. The game helps build a solid math and problem solving foundation with whole numbers, fractions, decimals, ratios, and percentages. Problem solving hints, calculator, and customization options are all only a keystroke away, making the learning process easier and more enjoyable. Real-life problems such as using area, distance and volume to make measurements help kids see how math can be used in the real world. Last but not least, kids will also learn how to read and interpret found in charts, graphs, maps, and tables throughout the game. The graphics and animations are sharp and attractive, and user interface is very intuitive.
