http://pbskids.org/cyberchase/quest/
Cyberchase, the math-mystery cartoon on PBS Kids Go!, has
just launched a new online game. Cyberchase: The Quest is an
interactive Web game that lets kids create their own cyber
characters, and go on action-packed quests throughout
Cyberspace, all while developing money-management skills to
help defeat the bad guys.
The game is designed to help children develop financial
literacy skills such as earning, saving and spending as part
of the Cyberchase: Know Your Dough financial literacy
campaign.
