Synopsis
A non-traditional game show for kids from eight to 12 that differs from other game shows in that it is education-based, with questions drawn from math, English, science and general knowledge, but presented in a fun and entertaining way, and the fun comes from the use of a lot of different kinds of animation.
The show starts with a computer crashing to earth, the screen opening and us going inside. It's a world of pulleys and strings and robots made from junk working the innards of this computer and they load these different games that you at home play interactively by shouting out the answer.
