Description:

Lost in Space: Animated Learning Adventure is an activity game based on the old series Lost in Space. The robot from the series is your guide in your mission to find a planet that is hospitable for human habitation. You will need to collect information on each planet you encounter, such as core samples, rock samples, atmospheric information, and other data. Three arcade-style activities are the means used to collect this information.

Features:

• TONS of facts on space
• Arcade games
• Realistic examples of data interpretation

Technical Aspects:

This title installed easily, but would not let me select where I wanted to put the folder. I was forced to install it to one drive, whether I wanted it there or not. There were no glitches or bugs.

Report and Conclusions:

Lost in Space: Animated Learning Adventure has a large amount of information on planets, asteroids, and other heavenly bodies. There is also good solid data collection techniques and data analyzing. However, there are only a few activities and as these are repeated every mission, this title gets repetitive fast. For optimum enjoyment and learning, I would suggest using this game as an educational supplement to studies of space.
