Only later would games with more mature content and themes, such as Mortal Kombat and Doom, enter the mainstream of gaming. The s saw an increase in controversy over adult themes and violence in video games.
That said, however, there has long been a demand for games which specifically cater to children. In , Don Rawitsch, a student history teacher from Carleton College, decided to create a computer game to explain a certain aspect of American history to his young students. The game has been revised many times since, but the essence of the game remains the same: the player is responsible for leading a party of pioneers from Missouri to Oregon, facing the same challenges that real-life Americans did on the trail in the mid-to-late nineteenth century.
Originally released for the home computer, it has more recently been ported to new devices such as the iPhone. Oregon Trail is typical of a successful educational video game: it provides accurate knowledge while also entertaining the students. A spin-off, Yukon Trail, was also created. Sequels included more specific locales, and one branched out into teaching history as well through the device of time-travel.
The series was so popular it inspired television shows, board games, and other cross-media spin-offs. Math Blaster! Yet another franchise, JumpStart, which premiered in the s, focuses on a variety of subjects and age groups.
Other games which provide a combination of learning and fun place more emphasis on the latter than those above. In this category might be included Feeding Frenzy , in which the player rises up the ocean food chain by eating other fish.
Virtual pet games not only provide a substitute for real pets but also prepare the child for the responsibilities that come with caring for a living animal. Such games have grown increasingly popular in recent years. Also, LucasArts has worked with the Lego Company to develop video games based on the Star Wars and Indiana Jones franchises which are designed to appeal to a younger audience.
In addition, some adults may find that they enjoy games that are ostensibly for children. Nostalgic gamers in their twenties or thirties may find it appealing to revisit the games of their youth.
