SOFTWARE REVIEW. (C)1987 B
Y JON PERREGAUX.. PUBLISHED B
Y. VIKING TECHNOLOGIES, INC.. W
ORLD GEOGRAPHY '87 EXISTS IN THAT RARE G
ENRE OF EDUCATIONAL SOFTWARE WHICH IS AC
TUALLY FUN TO PLAY WHILE BEING HIGHLY IN
FORMATIVE. AN ENORMOUS AMOUNT OF TIME AN
D EFFORT WAS PUT INTO THIS TRIVIA-LIKE Q
UIZ PROGRAM AND IT SHOWS... THE GRAP
HICS, FOR EXAMPLE, ARE NOTHING SHORT OF
SPECTACULAR-- FAR BETTER THAN WHAT ONE M
IGHT EXPECT FROM A PACKAGE SUCH AS THIS.
NOWHERE HAVE I SEEN A FULLY ANIMATED R
OTATING EARTH DRAWN WITH SUCH ASTOUNDING
LY ACCURATE DETAIL. IN FACT, THE GRAPHI
CS ARE SO GOOD ONE TENDS TO FORGET SIMPL
E REALITY: THIS IS A GEOGRAPHY TEST, NOT
HING MORE. IF ONLY MY GEOGRAPHY TESTS B
ACK IN HIGH SCHOOL WERE THIS MUCH FUN!..
AFTER THE PROGRAM FINISHES LOADING,
AN OPENING SCREEN DISPLAYING THE ROTATI
NG EARTH APPEARS. PRESSING RETURN PRESE
NTS YOU WITH A MENU ASKING WHICH GEOGRAP
HIC LOCATION YOU WOULD LIKE TO TEST ON:
AMERICA AND PACIFIC, EURASIA, AFRICA, OR
ALL. NEXT, YOU SELECT ONE OF THREE DIF
FICULTY LEVELS. THE DIFFICULTY LEVEL DE
TERMINES THE AMOUNT OF TIME YOU ARE ALLO
WED TO ANSWER A QUESTION... AFTER CH
OOSING A SKILL LEVEL, SELECT THE NUMBER
OF PLAYERS OR PICK REVIEW. (REVIEW WILL
CAUSE THE COMPUTER TO "PLAY" THE GAME B
Y ITSELF, QUICKLY SELECTING ALL THE RIGH
T ANSWERS SO YOU CAN STUDY THE INFORMATI
ON.).. THE GAME ITSELF IS SET UP IN
A THREE-ANSWER MULTIPLE CHOICE FORMAT. T
HOSE WHO KNOW HOW TO SOLVE MULTIPLE CHOI
CE QUESTIONS WILL FIND THAT REASONING OU
T THE ANSWER TO A QUESTION YOU DON'T KNO
W, BASED ON THE ANSWERS GIVEN, WILL WORK
MOST OF THE TIME. AS AN EXAGGERATED EX
AMPLE, WHAT IS THE CAPITAL OF INDIA? IS
IT WASHINGTON, LONDON, OR DELHI? TOUGH
CHOICE... ONE PLUS FOR WORLD GEOGRA
PHY '87 IS THE PLEASURABLE OPTION OF USI
NG A JOYSTICK INSTEAD OF THE KEYBOARD. T
HIS ALLOWS THE MORE LEISURELY SOUL TO KI
CK UP HIS FEET AND STRETCH OUT IN A CHAI
R WHILE PICKING OUT ANSWERS. IN A TWO P
LAYER GAME, EACH PLAYER USES HIS OWN JOY
STICK RATHER THAN SHARING ONE. THIS ELI
MINATES THE ANNOYING "JOYSTICK FUMBLE" U
SUALLY ACCOMPANYING "ONE-JOYSTICK FOR TW
O-PLAYER" GAMES... POINTS ARE AWARDE
D FOR CORRECT- AND SPEEDY- ANSWERS. FOR
EVERY TEN THOUSAND POINTS GAINED, A BON
US SCREEN APPEARS. THIS SHOWS YOU THREE
FINELY ILLUSTRATED FLAGS, THE NAME OF A
COUNTRY, AND ASKS YOU TO SELECT THE FLA
G THAT MATCHES THE NAMED COUNTRY. IF YO
U PICK THE CORRECT FLAG, YOU ARE ALLOWED
TO STAY IN THE GAME LONGER (THERE ARE A
SET NUMBER OF QUESTIONS PER GAME)...
WORLD GEOGRAPHY '87 IS WELL-SUITED FOR
TWO-PLAYER INVOLVEMENT. IN FACT, I RAT
HER PREFER IT. YOU BECOME SO DETERMINED
TO OUTSCORE YOUR OPPONENT THAT YOU DON'
T EVEN REALIZE YOU ARE LEARNING ANYTHING
- AND YOU DO LEARN A GREAT DEAL. THIS
IS ONE OF THE GAME'S STRONGEST POINTS.
IT'S FUN!.. ONE FEATURE OF THE GAME
I FIND ESPECIALLY PLEASING IS THAT THE P
ROGRAM DOESN'T "RAZZ" YOU IF YOU PICK TH
E WRONG ANSWER TO SOMETHING. INSTEAD, A
LITTLE TUNE IS PLAYED AND THE CORRECT A
NSWER IS SHOWN - AND STAYS THERE SO YOU
CAN SEE IT AND REMEMBER IT. THIS LETS Y
OU LEARN FROM YOUR MISTAKES. THIS ALSO
IMPARTS SOME SOUND PSYCHOLOGICAL REINFOR
CEMENT INTO THE GAME BY ENCOURAGING YOU
NOT TO WORRY ABOUT GETTING SOMETHING WRO
NG. PROGRAMS THAT GO "HOOOOONK!!!" LIKE
A MACK TRUCK UNDER A BRIDGE, FLASHING "
WRONG ANSWER!!" IN BIG, RED LETTERS DON'
T GET MUCH USE AFTER A WHILE... IF T
HERE ARE ANY FLAWS IN THIS PROGRAM, IT W
OULD HAVE TO BE WITH (BELIEVE IT OR NOT)
THE GRAPHICS. MORE SPECIFICALLY, THE T
EXT WHICH YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO READ IN OR
DER TO MAKE A SELECTION IS SOMETIMES HAR
D TO UNDERSTAND. THERE ARE ALSO A FEW C
ONFOUNDING ABBREVIATIONS USED FOR SOME O
F THE MORE OBSCURE COUNTRIES, SIMPLY BEC
AUSE THE FULL NAME WON'T FIT ON THE SCRE
EN... ALSO, THIS IS PROBABLY NOT THE
KIND OF PROGRAM YOU'LL WANT TO BOOT UP
EVERY TIME YOU TURN ON YOUR COMPUTER, EI
THER. GEOGRAPHY IS GEOGRAPHY, AND EVEN W
ITH ALL THE PRETTY GRAPHICS, NOTHING WIL
L DISGUISE THAT FACT... SPEAKING OF
PRETTY GRAPHICS, THIS PROGRAM HAS A LOT
GOING FOR IT. THE SCREEN LAYOUT IS MERCI
FULLY SIMPLE AND NICELY ILLUSTRATED. TH
E TITLE OF THE PROGRAM APPEARS AT THE TO
P OF THE SCREEN IN BIG, OLDE ENGLISH LET
TERS ON A KING ARTHURIAN SCROLL. TWO LA
RGE WINDOWS ARE USED TO DISPLAY VITAL GR
APHIC INFORMATION... THE LEFT WINDOW
DISPLAYS AN EXCELLENT RENDITION OF THE
COUNTRY IN QUESTION ALONG WITH ITS FLAG.
THE CAPITAL OF THE COUNTRY IS INDICATE
D BY A FLASHING WHITE DOT. IN THE RIGHT
WINDOW IS THE ROTATING EARTH, WHICH HEL
PS TO GLOBALLY LOCATE THE COUNTRY IN QUE
STION BY DISPLAYING A SMALL BLINKING DOT
OVER IT. THE REST OF THE BOTTOM OF THE
SCREEN IS WHERE YOU MAKE YOUR SELECTION
S. YOU MUST PROPERLY GUESS THE COUNTRY,
CAPITAL, CURRENCY, LANGUAGE, AND POPULA
TION. IF YOU WISH TO RESTART THE GAME,
PRESS F1... WORLD GEOGRAPHY '87 IS A
N IMPRESSIVE PIECE OF SOFTWARE THAT SEEM
S DESTINED TO BE A BIG HIT FOR SCHOOLS.
BUT IT WOULD ALSO MAKE AN EXCELLENT ADD
ITION TO YOUR OWN GROWING LIBRARY OF EDU
CATIONAL SOFTWARE........... WORLD
