     Since this sounds like an educational program, it's likely that the
number of users who will remember the game based upon your description is
fairly small. Also (if it s an edu product) the title will probably be pretty
forgettable.

     If you could dredge up a bit more in the way of hints ... . Like, about
what year did you play the game and was it played at school? Did the game
focus upon a particular area of math (like Fractions or Word Problems)?  Did
the game include the puzzles within some larger adventure?  Were there any
outstanding characters (like a bear, etc. who served as a guide)?  Do any of
these vendor names sound right for the game: MECC, The Learning Company,
Milliken, Scholastic, Troll?

     I have not played all that many edu games; but, maybe, someone else on
Csa2 or Cea2 will remember the game you want.
