Yes, it's legit! It is fun, in a mindless sort of way :-)

Ack, mindless? Maybe my vocabulary is lower than normal, I run into words that I'm not sure about every 10 minutes are so.

Great, I did not think it was mindless. Infact I was really impressed by my knowledge. Thanks Kat

I forgot it was the vocabulary one! But still, taking a vocabulary "quiz" for "fun"? LOL

SHHHHHHHHH Perna, it's not work, if it's a game. You play and learn something new.

With the way my kids love video games, I've often said that if someone could turn actual historical events into video games they'd make millions, as a parent I bought my kids educational games before the mindless (but very fun I must admit) things that they play.

There are a few out there, Math Bingo is outstanding. My neices and nephews fought over it so I installed it on all of their computers and they'll still play it at my in-laws even though they're mostly all teens now. There were a few others that came with my parents HP computer a million years ago. Howie Mandell was the voice, there was a math and English one.
