I want to busted out typing of the dead now.

I wish I had an old school version of Oregon Trail.

I completely forgot about number munchers until now. Sweet nostalgia that really brought me back. I used to love watching those cutscenes. That game really did help me in math in the early 90's.

I know they had two franchises from The Learning Company in there, but no Cluefinders? That was the best example of a point and click adventure game and it educated kids with the many puzzles to solve based off of a specific grade level.
However, it's their list and it was good at the very least.

We had three educational games on our computers at my middle school: Oregon Trail, The Incredible Machine, and (my personal favorite) Midnight Rescue! I loved that game.

Oregon Trail does not teach people much except for the variety of 1800-era diseases and why the buffalo almost went extinct.

As far as educational games go, Typing of the Dead > All
