Hungry Red Planet Hungry Red Planet attempts to make learning about nutrition fun for kids by sliding the educational component into a sci-fi, turn-based strategy game with an interesting story line. You're the leader of a crew sent to Mars with several objectives: feed your settlers healthy foods, create self-sustaining settlements, explore the planet, and defend yourself against strange mutant creatures. Most of the gameplay takes place on an isometric map of the planet, and a food pyramid-based interface where you drag and drop foods trying to create the perfect meal. [source:mobygames]
