Description

Hi-Res Learning Games. (evaluation) Betsy Staples.

Sierra On-Line, one of the leading publishers of Apple games, has recently entered the educational software market with a series of Hi-Res Learning Games.

The graphics in all three programs are outstanding, and we detected the skill of master game designers as we watched the children on our test panel become riveted to the computer screen. The On-Line packages also offer a feature that we have found lacking in educational packages of many other manufacturers: educational objectives. By reading the objectives or "learning features" on the box, a parent or teacher can determine whether the game teaches skills his child or class needs to learn.

Each package comes with a two-page Parent Guide that offers a brief description of the game(s) on the disk and a list of control keys, of which there are only four.
