The only edutainment game I remember playing (forgot the title) is a first-person dungeon crawler ALA Wizardry, but instead of attacking enemies, you killed them by solving math problems.

The only edutainment game I had as a kid was Word Zapper on the 2600.  It was actually pretty fun.

I know that I "played" a few different typing tutor games. The only game that I can remember is Oregon Trail.

MATH BLASTER, SON!
We had that for an old IBM computer.  It had one 5.25 disk drive, no hard drive, and a DOS boot disk.  It was the opposite of awesome.

Does Oregon Trail count?

Best game ever. Seriously. i would play with my dad and stuff all the time. A few years after dad discovered Diablo and the edutainment went away and Diablo took it's place

Originally I couldn't think of anything but Math Fun for the Intellivision. However, I added some C64 games to my collection yesterday and remembered I played a bunch of Carmen Sandiego games.

Oregon Trail, Mutanoid Math Challenge, Math Blaster, Reader Rabbit, Carmen Sandiego among others. This reminds me, I may have to pick up Oregon Trail for the 3DS. ha

I played Oregon Trail a lot. I also played some random game with Donald Duck but I can't remember what it was called.

I played Oregon Trail a lot and some random game with Donald Duck but I can't remember what it was called.

Also, I can't remember if it was a game or a book on the PC but when I was in grade school I remember going to the school's library and playing something that had a beaver in it. The only thing I can actually remember is what the beaver said: "I'm a beaver, and I rap, and I wear a baseball cap."

i have played reader rabbit once or twice  on win98 computer but just barely because of 256 colors

Wanted: Ned Kelly was one I played a fair bit. It was a DOS game where you were a Victorian detective tracking down Ned Kelly (infamous Australian outlaw) and his gang. It was actually pretty good.

Also that mind-maze game within Encarta.

Where in time is Carmen Sandiego. I can't believe that I forgot about that one. I wanted it so badly but then when I got it for the C64 I think I played it 3 or 4 times and found it was too hard and gave up.
