About This Game

Let's Make Learning Fun (Or Else)

Welcome to the Edutainment Vortex Diner! A collection of classic 80s and 90s educational games that didn't actually exist in your universe, and yet, here we are. Obviously the goal is to learn all about science and history and math, and there's no strange cosmic horror twist to anything, right? Also you can make sandwiches!

Meet your teachers -- Miss Monday (Time), Omegus Septum (Science), Sir Rox-a-Lot (History), Detective Inque Wells (Literature) and The Great Zephyr (Math). They are unfathomable beings that span the infinite stretches of time and space and not delusional lost souls in need of a kid to solve the mystery of their existence. Stop insisting the game is anything like that. It's just educational. That's all.
