An educational game on the BBC computer

Postby MONTYRUN on Mon Aug 29, 2011 4:50 pm

I remember playing an educational game at school which was a general knowledge game. A series of questions were asked and if you were to get any of these wrong a dragon would go and eat the princess. As you can tell the game was set in the medieval times, and the dragon was at one end of the screen and the princess was at other.

Does anyone know the game I am refering to?

I can only think of two "educational" games on the beeb, Granny's Garden (this does have dragons in it) as well as Dragon World, but my money is on GG.
