What’d you think?: Even as Lightspan educational games go, this one was a drag. No bizarre backstory, no child actors, not even any gameplay to speak of, just a man in a bi-color shirt and a woman in a smart vest lecturing about arithmetic. The “practice” section didn’t even allow you to really do the math problems yourself, instead playing a video that showed the problem, paused, then shouted the answer. Each of these videos had a different theme, and the one where the math problems were being thrown in paint-filled balloons at a wooden fence had canned circus music that got the video a copyright flag on YouTube.
