The coolest thing about real classic games is that they stay in the spotlight, regardless of how old they get. It seems like you just can’t keep a good game down and a title will pop up now and then, either in passing conversation, video gaming humor, or in the form of a sequel or remake.

With the case of the eighties edutainment title Number Munchers by MECC, it has been doing a little bit of everything, even some thirty years after it was popular with American school children. In 1995, it was effectively replaced by Math Munchers, a face-lifted remake/sequel. It has been redone as a flash game, which can still be found here, and it has also been the source of some great classic gaming humor at Dorkly.

Revisit this old blast from the past, select your grade level and brush up on your math skills and your nostalgia. Or for a really good time, see what kids can do without a calculator!
