Kotaku has an interesting article up about an math game called Dimension M. It is game that teaches several mathematical principles while merging the player into a fantasy world.
Some footage:

Problem is that parents believe it is very violent for their children.
What do you think? does education and fun mix? video games?
Never played a math game that was very exciting. However, I have always felt games like Age Of Empires and Total War are a very basic way for kids to expand their knowledge of world history and become more aware of the past.
