Race Chase is an activity in JumpStart Adventures 4th Grade: Sapphire Falls. It is designed to teach various subjects at a fourth grade level.
Description[]
In order to catch the culprit behind the monster sightings in the Sapphire Mines, Sally and TJ must chase after them in an ore car. The player steers the ore car using the arrow keys. Statements will appear at the top of the screen that can be either true or false. If a statement is true, the player should drive over a can with a "T" on it, and if the statement is false, the player should drive over a can with an "F" on it. Various obstacles will appear on the tracks that should be avoided as well. Correct answers make the ore car speed up, and incorrect answers and obstacles slow the ore car down.
This activity covers curriculum from all of the other activities in the game, minus Costume Capers.
