Edutainment Month continues with the Munchers series by MECC! Munch math, munch words, munch trivia. Om nom nom Nicholas: Man, I remember Number Munchers. played it in like first grade. We all went to the computer lab for math time and got to play that. It's honestly the earliest interaction with a computer I can remember. I seem to remember that some screens were in black and white (or shades of green, and a few got to play in color, and those were the best seats. :p
That would have been. 1988 I guess. What a trip.

Im suprised you didnt mention the fact that the Troggles where freakn cannibals and would eat each other if they land on the same square. That kinda blew my mind as a kid. BTW ever play Odell Lake by MECC? You are a fish and you eat smaller fish and avoid bigger ones till you grow bigger. And you gotta dodge Otters and fish hooks. It was awesome.

I never played the ones you listed in this video, but I remember always watching my sisters playing the munchers deluxe games (math, word, knowledge, too young to understand any of it myself. I surprisingly actually still have the games (along side numerous other old programs) in a huge cd binder we've had for years. Ah, the memories

Oh man, I remembered playing Word/Number Munchers when I was in Elementary School, and it was a thing since I was in Kindergarten. I also remembered the Mac versions of these two. Also, I didn't even know there was Super Munchers. Now THAT'S a Muncher game I wanted to play. Word and Number got me stressed.

Back in fifth grade, Word Munchers was the game I put on our school computers in the library. Kids actually asked me if I programmed it.
I put a Genesis emulator with Sonic the hedgehog on the class computer the next year. It ran at about half speed, as a Pentium was recommended.

How many edutainment games do have right now? I enjoy your reviews of older games from the past gaming generations, but one question I have right now is there a chance you'll run out of material for these shows? Theme wise or in general.

I always loved these games for the Macintosh. My old Performa 578 included Super Munchers as standard install (Along with Mario Teaches Typing, and Spectre)
The Muncher series games were one of my favorites as a youngin.

Hey, I remember playing this shit in school on really old apple computers that were just monochrome green. The game was on one of the bigger floppy disks. I never played super munchers that I recall though.

Someone must have made a lot of money off this game, judging by how many of my fellow commenters played this in elementary school (as I did. Seems like it must have been in half the schools in America!

Muncher! I remember the fond days of sitting in my school's Apple II lab and playing both Picture Munchers and Number Munchers. My classroom had the Mac version, as we had B/W Macs in our classrooms
