You'll see pictures of characters and there will be a dialogue balloon or instructions to user. Sort of like reading through comic book panels. The user interacts by using the mouse to uncover the artifacts, doing matching games, manipulating the puzzle pieces, etc. I think Roman Town is an interesting way to sort of "see" history as they give you an idea of what a room looks like and you "meet" kids from that time period. You learn some factual things about archeology, the time period, etc. If you try out the free games on their site, you might get a feel for the game's style.Jill Stanishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17424250184639194917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8270157944660616531.post-26108749712499471292011-02-05T22:30:31.640-06:002011-02-05T22:30:31.640-06:00hi Jill,
