Yeah, there were some later "remakes" of the Munchers games in the mid-90's, usually under the name "Deluxe" or something. Similar gameplay, but very different games.

This was my #1 played game as a kid. My dad always had the high score, like CRAZYYYY score, 999.9999.999.999. Wasn't until i was like 9 when i figured out he was cheating by editing the stupid file that had the score board...

Back in fifth grade, Word Munchers was the game I put on our school computers in the library. Kids actually asked me if I programmed it. I put a Genesis emulator with Sonic the hedgehog on the class computer the next year. It ran at about half speed, as a Pentium was recommended.

I recall the same company made some dog based superhero-y game a while later with a lot of number munchers easter eggs. The only game of their I ever got into was the various trail games they made for Apple PowerPC. Yukon Trail (which isn't as good as oregon trail but that I loves for some reason) and Amazon Trail (which was better but I only had as a demo on the Yukon Trail disk). Then there was some weird point and click game that took place in a museum that had a robot in it.

I remember playing this game in school in the early 90s. But there is another educational game I am trying to find. It was another math game but showed an image of a race car on a track. The image would refresh showing the car's progression along the track as you completed math problems. At the end of the race it gave you your completion time. I could never find the name of the game as it seemed really obscure.
