Edmark has packaged three classic games from around the world: Nine-Man's-Morris, Go-Moku, and Mancala, in an attractive package designed to teach strategy development in real-world problem solving. Some of these strategies are Model Building, Analysis, Pattern Recognition, Attention Focussing, Elimination, and Reconsideration of Assumptions. A Dear Parents file with a QuickTime video by Donna Stanger, Designer and Executive Producer of this CD-ROM, presents valuable information on these games, strategies, and how to help your child develop these skills.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe games are playable on ten different skill levels and each have an animated strategy coach who makes comments and suggestions during the course of play. Occasionally, at an appropriate point in the game, a Real-Life Strategy QuickTime movie is available in which someone (in one case, a stunt man) explains the importance of a particular strategy in their real life work. If you just want to play the games, the extra narration can be turned off. You can play the computer or another player.  The screen opponents are animated and show appropriate reactions to good and bad moves. There are three different game environments for each game, depending upon the skill level chosen. The higher skill level environments are more abstract, while the lower level environments display animated people opponents. An informative and interesting history of each game and background on the environment in which that game is presented is available at a mouse click. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe animation and graphics are very well-done and the sound is very good. If you are just interested in playing the games, you can find numerous freeware and shareware versions of theses games available from various sources; however, they operate at a basic level not always appropriate for young children. The animation and dialog in this package help to teach your child to not only play the games, but also how to think about what is happening in the games and how to develop and employ strategies to succeed. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor Windows 95 \/ 98 or Mac (Power Macintosh: OS 9 or Below) [*Please review compatibility\/platform sections in 'What You Get']\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Edmark","offers":[{"title":"Used In Sleeve","offer_id":51400402960662,"sku":"9944","price":13.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0083\/0377\/1710\/files\/OJSQ5807OJOJSQ5807OJ.jpg?v=1781049928","url":"https:\/\/www.neverdiemedia.com\/products\/strategy-games-of-the-world","provider":"NeverDieMedia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
