Educator's Review: In Angry aliens: Ecology players have to shoot aliens to answer questions about ecology. This game can best be described as space invaders meets multiple choice, and it is a nice combination of gameplay elements. There are 9 different categories of questions in the game, but the game itself doesn't teach any of this information - it only tests what has already been learned. It is, however, a fun way to be tested.
Please Note: This is a fast paced game that might make some players anxious, and distract them from concentrating on the questions.
