About the program:
"FLASH CARD FISHING" is an educational game which allows
you to catch fish by answering basic addition questions.
It runs on IBM PC/AT and PS/2 compatibles with DOS 2.0 (or
above) and EGA graphics (or higher), a high density diskette
drive and hard disk with at least 2 megabytes of free space.
Different user levels allow you to choose the difficulty
level of the questions, and how quickly you must respond.
You can get bonus points by avoiding bugs, sunburn,
water skiers, and alligators, but watch out if you answer
too slowly, or incorrectly!
The program includes easy-to-use menus, including a
"How to Use the Program" section.
"FLASH CARD FISHING" is recommended for ages 6 through 12,
and is also useful for remedial students.
