@stack Was it this? https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=CM1LPNi4kNg Looking at it, it isn't that. I think the game had other math based minigames as well, but I'm not sure.

Yeah. There were some other games, where you could make 'a feathered friend', and the worst one, where Fatty Bear (usually called Farty Bear) played against you and sometimes cheated, causing much crying.
Almost sounds like something from the Super Solvers series. They had a bunch of games like that. Fits edutainment too.

I remember as a child, around 5 or so, my grandfather had an old mac computer. I can't remember what kind, but it had a CRT monitor I believe. There was an old edutainment game that all I remember of was this old man, some sort of researcher or entomologist, and he knocked something over and let all of his bugs loose. I distinctly remember walking to the net in the corner and getting agitated because I had to use math instead of grabbing the net to catch them again, as what made the most sense...
