 Curriculum Included!
ROE comes to you wrapped in a 19 page supplemental curriculum that provides fun new lesson plans as well as all new activity pages you can print for you class (or family) to enjoy, or save to disk to share with future classes.
Editable & Printable Certificates
ROE is the first NoteNiks games CD to offer editable certificates that allow parents, teachers, and kids to print and share their game play successes. Certificates that can be shared with friends and family in full color! Game wide scoring (detailed below) allows players to receive three possible certificate levels (blue, silver, gold), enter their names and edit the certificate message as well!
 Built-in Web Browser
ROE extends its' reach on to the Internet by offering a built-in web browser that connects parents and teachers with regular updates, support tools, interactive forums, and registration information. The ROE browser also provides a 'closed loop' web experience. With no links to external (or public) portions of the web. Keeping it kid safe and family friendly.
Game wide scoring
 ROE purposefully stays away from providing game-by-game scoring. Children are always encouraged with positive messages and asked to try again should they make a selection that would, in other products, present as a loss. Healthy earth messages are shared throughout gameplay. Making any time spent playing a positive learning experience.
Having said this, ROE does allow players to accumulate points with the completion of every level within each of the games. So, the more a player plays, the higher their score will be and the brighter their printable certificate (detailed above) will present.
 Enhanced sound control
ROE has listened to customer feedback and added all new sound control design and options to the latest release. Players and parents now have the ability to control rollover playback as well as select from a number of voice hints and prompts throughout game play.
Future release of ROE will build upon sound control features and we welcome your constructive feedback on this as we grow with new ROE versions.
 FREE Upgrades!!
That is right, buy now and you get all new, same point version, releases for free! Every few months the MBD team release what are called 'point version upgrades' in which we add new features, services, or fixes to the games. Any registered customer is welcome to receive the upgraded CD for only the price of shipping/handling!
Point version upgrades: A point version upgrade carries the same version number. For example; v1.0 may have up to nine point version upgrades ( v1.1 through v1.9 ). New version numbers ( v2.0, v3.0, etc. ) would not fall under this free offer.
Cross platform gaming
ROE comes ready for play for Windows and OS X operating systems. Your ROE purchase comes to you on a hybrid CD that can install and play on either a PC or a Macintosh computer. Letting you have the freedom to design your own hardware offering in any way you like.
