Descartes Dungeon

Descartes dungeon is an RPG adventure game that also teaches coordinate geometry.  Players control an Indian Jones-style character stuck in a dungeon. The maps of the dungeon use the language of Descartes' coordinates. The player must learn to relate them to the physical geometry of the dungeon and solve problems to escape. It is a fun adventure and you'll learn something.

This is a part of initiative called terminus.school to create fun, story rich educational games for understanding mathematics.
