Widgit seems to have cornered the market for high quality, educational program that will actually do what they claim for pre-school and primary children.

The Humpty Dumpty Mystery follows Humpty's cracking fall by presenting a platoon of the King's Men with different coloured hats, badges, eyes, mouths and jackets. By cunning questioning, you eliminate soldiers and have a guess at who pushed him. The score is based on the number of tries. Responses may be typed in, or there is a single key entry mode. Part two shows you who pushed him asked you to type back his description. Sounds easy? You ought to try it!

Who Killed Cock Robin? is back to deduction. Can you identify murderer, time and place? The game features several levels of difficulty.

Graphics are great, as is the sound. A really slick, professional package, which will teach and test you as well as your children.
