Microsoft Bob is a user interface for Microsoft Windows and Windows '95 streamlining the bewildering world of computing possibilities for new computer users, filing programs away in themed menus with a "rooms of a home" metaphor. It includes one game.
Assisted by Hank, a pachydermic Personal Guide, GeoSafari follows in the path of Educational Insights' electronic educational aids, presenting multiple-choice queries on matters of physical and political geography, world culture and astronomy. Hank will ask series of questions based on the contents of various maps and diagrams, and 1-4 players get three tries to click on the correct answer in the list, with decreasing point amounts awarded after the eventual selection of the correct answer.
