Does anyone fondly recollect educational games from their childhoods? I recall as a little kid being hooked on a series of games called “Math Blasters” on PC. There were some cool science games as well, but I have no idea anymore what they were called. I think one could argue that almost any game can be educational in one respect or another. But in this case, I am referring specifically to games which were designed with education as their key purpose.

Another couple games that were a blast to play were Operation Weather Disaster and Skytrip USA. They were educational, but more than fun. Both were PC games.

Yeah I played a ton of them, especially those point-and-click type of games with a lot of animation.

I absolutely love my PS Vita! Such an underappreciated console. If I had to have one to take on a desert island, I’d probably choose the Vita as I’ve got so many games on it!

I typically drink plain water, sometimes with some lemon juice in it.

Mario Is Missing was always my favorite educational game. When I played it on SNES, I didn't even know it was an educational game. I just thought it was fun as hell.

I remember there were some educational games by funskool which used to have name guessing, animal food etc. Those were pretty fun games. And after that I followed some of the math specific games in the console too. It was fun to play those games.

I wouldnt do it to be honest, even if I was good at it (I'm not) I would rather work on something productive, dont get me wrong I love videogames so much as any other gamer but for me its just a hobby not a lifetime career.
