  2. By the Light of the Moon Hundreds of years ago, there was an evil wizard who was jealous of all the beautiful stars in the sky. So one day, he cast a spell that turned all of the stars into a dull ugly color. The only way to break the wizard’s spell and make the stars bright and beautiful again is to collect 15 stars by answering 15 of the wizard’s questions correctly. Can you do it? Can you help make all of the stars beautiful again? It is a dangerous task. The evil wizard will try to cast spells on you to slow you down or to stop you, so beware!! You must follow the moonlit path to complete your journey and collect 15 stars to win. Good luck, and remember to stay on the moonlit path! Home Page

  3. Game Directions This game is a basic board game, played as follows: Set up the game board and give each player a marker. Begin the game on the computer by clicking on the “Time to Play” link. The first player rolls the dice and advances the number of spaces indicated. If the player lands on a blank space, it is the next player’s turn. If the player lands on a “Danger,” “Name This Planet,” or “Question” space, the player clicks on the corresponding link on the computer screen and answers the question or accepts the penalty. A star is given to each player who answers a question correctly. The first person to collect 15 stars wins the game.
