cd #1 - the carmen sandiego game is very fun. excellent questions that really stimulate learning and challenges. covers a variety of different subjects so it never gets boring. when there are too many wrong answers in a certain skill, the game goes back to that specific skill to drill the player until the player improves. it allows for more than one player so my son and i played against each other. (of course i let him beat me to answer to get him to do the questions.)

cd #2 - the zoombinis (i think that's what it's called) game is also a very fun game. this game is mainly about problem solving. it's a series of puzzles (greatly varied) that slowly get more challenging. the only change i would make is to have more control on the level of difficulty. it became a little too difficult, too quickly for my son. a bit frustrating for him.

cd #3 - pretty much a waste. yukon trail is a very boring game. we went through it once and never looked at it again.

2 out of 3 games is not too shabby. a very important thing to note is that it takes a pretty powerful computer to use the carmen sandiego game. i couldn't use it on my home pc or work laptop, the game would just freeze up - so we had to go use it at my sister's. if your computer isn't very powerful, don't buy it. but as long as you have a powerful computer you won't have this problem.

we chose this product after reviewing several products. Installment is easy, kids are having lots f fun and the material is almost up to date. Worth the price.

The product is fine but I would have expected it to come in a box, like the ones I saw in the local store.
