Little Caesars Fractions Pizza Little Caesars Fractions Pizza is an educational designed game to teach children about fractions using pizza (Little Caesars pizza) due to pizza's inherent fractional properties. The learning action begins in a futuristic, time-traveling pizza delivery operation run by dinosaurs. You are hired after a brief screening process that includes identifying which pizza out of a selection represents a particular fraction. From there, you can elect to deliver pizza to one of four time periods: Dukedom, Amazing Mozart, Triassic Park, and Studio 50. Each time period corresponds to a different song, lesson and minigame dealing with fractions. For example, in the Triassic Park period, you must use a sling shot to hit all of the creatures carrying a fraction that fits a certain specification, i.e., greater than or less than a particular fraction.

You earn tip money by successfully completing these minigames (not necessarily for delivering the pizza). These tip coins can be used in a fractions-themed Nibbles-type arcade called Tails game back in the restaurant. [source:mobygames]
