 With a bit more cause-and-effect in action, ''Rascal in Numberland'' could be a pretty good teaching aid. It is entirely possible that the later locations offer more in the way of player involvement, but one can only describe what one sees.
-==Story==
+{{SeriesNav|Rascal's Alphamaze|Rascal in Numberland|Rascal the Raccoon series{{!}}(Overview)|[[Rascal the Raccoon series]]}}
 You are Rascal the Raccoon, and you are visiting Numberland. Numberland is a town where all the businesses are themed around mathematics. One store teaches the various numbers; another place will teach quantity. Basic math functions, and fractions round out the stores. This game will help pre-schoolers and children with basic math skills in a fun and educational environment.
-==Instructions==
+== Instructions ==
 Welcome to ''Rascal in Numberland''. In this, the shareware version, the only part of the game that is accessible is Number's Pool Hall. In this section of the game, you walk around the pool hall. Each table has a number of balls on it, either in the rack or on the table itself. Above the table is a pool rack. By walking on the rack, the number of balls on the table is revealed. You can have the child count the balls on the table, and then go to the rack to see if the answer is correct.

 Although it is clear that [[Rob Sherwood]] was onto something with the ''Rascal'' series, in its available form ''Numberland'' is less of a revelation than its companion piece, ''[[Rascal's Alphamaze]]''. Whereas ''Alphamaze'' is a clear, direct piece of design that unambiguously teaches the player the sequence of the alphabet while directing the player from point A to point B (as it were), ''Numberland'' reverts to the hands-off exploration of ''[[Shootout at Dodge]]'' and ''[[Shoplifter 2]]''.
