World History in a Nutshell

The classroom is dimly lit and there's a projecter set up to a laptop.

"Good morning," says Daniel, beaming all around. "Today, we're going to be touching on Ancient Egypt. There's packets on your desks with information about mummies and health and --" His face clouded and he frowned slightly. "gods. You can look at all that in your leisure, but first, I'm going to talk to you a bit about my dig in Egypt this summer."

Daniel has a power point presentation and everything which would have been done had the mun not fallen asleep yesterday. It's mostly pictures of sand. And more sand. And yes, you guessed it, sand. Daniel's highly enthusiastic about it, however, as he babbles on quite happily for half the lecture.

"Okay, for the second half, I apologize to those of you who aren't used to computers and also to those who took Egyptian archaeology last year, as you'll have already played a couple of these games. There's a choice of three to play, so have fun and talk to me if you have any questions or need a hand."


Build a pyramid

Make a Mummy

Death in Sakkara

The fun part of the lesson. Providing you can work a computer :)

Molly started with the mummy game since she had played the other two in class last spring. Oh, yay, she lost two lives, but did get it right in the end.

Broots continued playing the games until he got perfect scores. He spent the rest of his time trying to find the source code for them.

Dean grumbled as he kept running out of food and welfare supplies over and over and over again trying to get the goddamn pyramid built. He may possibly have been sneaking covert glances at Evie's screen every now and again, attempting to figure out the answers the easy way. It was just a game, after all.

Blair had played all of these games in classes with Dr. Jackson last semester. Unfortunatly the cast kept getting in the way and there was still no union for the pyramid workers so his scores weren't perfect.

Cameron failed to build a pyramid but apparently was really good at making mummies. Yay!
