A strange little side quest
Put World of Alice: Draw Numbers next to the history of learning games and a few unexpected connections appear. Reader Rabbit's 1986 arrival was part of a major expansion of educational computer software before the CD-ROM boom of the 1990s. It also connects to a different milestone: Midway's Gun Fight from 1975 was the first arcade video game to use a microprocessor. So a round of World of Alice: Draw Numbers is not just a quick distraction; it is a tiny stop on a much longer learning games timeline.
