Crosscountry USA 2 Cross Country is at its heart an economic simulation of driving an 18 wheel truck delivering commodities.

Players travel across the country picking up commodities in different cities - and then delivering them all to their destination.

Along the way, they solve problems, use map skills to plan the trip and math skills to calculate expenses, balance sleep, food and fuel requirements.

It is an educational program but only in that it matches up to curriculum requirements in North American schools particularly well (Geography, Cardinal Directions, Math/Balance Sheet, etc) [source:mobygames]
