adam242 Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 That would be Logic Levels from Fisher-Price. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidMil Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 (edited) I have a copy on cartridge, played it... I have a soft spot for the early children's titles. Takes me back... When I was a kid, my Dad pounded the multiplication and division tables into my head with flash cards. When my boys were growing up I was sooo happy when I found Math Attack for the 2600. I didn't even have to watch them because I could tell by the sounds how well (or bad) they were doing. But unlike you, they both still hate that game!

Rybags Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Glad I didn't try to answer. To me it looks like a forgettable type-in Basic game from a magazine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carlsson Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Frieda Lekkerkerker seems to have been quite influencial with children's software, several titles in her own Inc licensed to Fisher-Price as well as Tandy etc. In case it is the same person, she now runs a B&B in France. I saw a mention that she moved to the US in 1977 for grad school and remained for nearly 20 years, which seems to fit. Perhaps someone for an ANTIC podcast? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_The Doctor__ Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Glad I didn't try to answer. To me it looks like a forgettable type-in Basic game from a magazine. I vote Rybags make some awesome learning games, math, and coding! Now that would rock! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you get the name right? Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam242 Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Thanks for the quick response! Looks interesting. I'll have to try it out. You're welcome. Just curious where you found the screenshot with no description? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyChris Posted January 31, 2019 Author Share Posted January 31, 2019 It was from an eBay listing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidMil Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 I could easily be mistaken about the name. In the middle on the bottom of the screen it gave you a math problem. On one side of the bottom was the total number of problems and on the other side of the bottom was the number you had gotten right. The rest of the screen had numbers floating around and you used the joystick to click on the correct answer to the problem. If a number touched the bottom of the play area it meant the timer had run out and you got a raspberry sound. It also would list the problems you got wrong so you could see where you needed to do additional work. David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
