They mixed together history and geography with action-adventure gaming. It's a good game,and a great teacher, but its lacking in a few areas. But otherwise, I know I learned alot from playing. However, I don't think it will be seen in any classrooms anytime soon. 3.Controls and Overview ------------------------ It seems Mario was sucked into some kind of time vortex in the beginning of the game, and Luigi has to find him and rescue him, with the help of Yoshi, by finding missing artifacts in the lands and returning them, then answering questions about them. There are a lot of lands in the game,??? in all, but they are all pretty static, and all the changes is the building and map structure and the different artifacts.

They all give information to you about the land or the artifact you are holding. 1. Professor- Gives good information on the lands with a smarmy attitude 2. Police Officer- Tells you not to do certain things in a city, or something along those lines 3. Kid- Whines about his life and how his parents won't let him do something. 4. Buisness Woman- Gives good information on the lands, and then says something dumb 5. Tourist- Usually refers to his tour book for info, uses stupid sayings about the land. 5. Tools ------------- When you hit the Start button in a level, a menu pops up with the following things : Artifacts, Computer, Globulator, City Map, and Photo Center. Artifacts - Displays the artifacts you currently have Computer - Displays all the quests in a land you have done so far.

Walkthrough ----------------------- There are five doors in a room, with a land being in each of them. After you get all the artifacts in a land, move Yoshi to the city on the Globulator where you are and then go to the cactus to exit the level.
