Do kids know what they are learning? How can a simple RPG contain references to the Philosopher's Stone (Mutus Liber?) and Norse mythology without having an impact on how these children will eventually view their world?
Welp now we know how to get them to remember stuff just put it in a video game. I am going to work on the Black History version of Super Mario Bros with Malcolm and Martin as the Luigi brothers. LOL
@ FreeMan - Or a modern version of the old "Schoolhouse Rock" snipets reshaped into a "Shcoolhouse Rap" version. Since most rappers have kids - most could probably be talked into creating a rap that also teaches.
Concerning to whom the fault of oppression belongs; "We are not all equally guilty but we are all equally responsible" - Rabbi Abraham Hescel
Concerning blaming others for the problem; "...And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?... - Matthew: 7 1-5
Concerning how to fix the problems concerning oppression; "Someone once said that the word 'motivation' should never be used in the singular. Some combination of motives always exist and it's impossible for anyone to qualify the proportion of each that is involved in any given act" - Warren Buffet (in an interview in the USA Today)

That all depends on whether the children ever figure out how the clock works, and, what time it is...,
