Comments: This game allows students to go on quests before answering DOK Level 1 and 2 questions. While these questions are sorted by standards and grade level, the rigor of the questions is lacking, and most are just fluency questions that do not focus on understanding for both math or ela. There are approved programs that do a much better job.

Approved*: No
