Spelunx and the Caves of Mr. Seudo

This is another in a series of graphical adventures for kids by Cyan. The hand-drawn black & white graphics originally done for the Macintosh support an open-ended exploration of the game world. There are many different educational activities within, such as: an Animation Machine teaches stop-motion, Mr. Seudo's telescope concerns Cartesian coordinates, the Yon-Yon Caverns is about gravity, and a Lightning Simulator enlightens on the speed of sound. Also, a Pigtoad Tree teaches choreography and music, Criss-Ants is about animal behaviour, a Pet Lizard concerns metabolism, and the Tree Gene-orator is regarding genetics. There are many hidden spots for kids to click on and discover new items.
