Overview
A giant meteoroid is hurtling through space toward Earth. Unfortunately, the computer controlling the newly installed meteoroid and asteroid exploder or MAAX, defense system has developed a HAL-like personality, and refuses to stop the approaching rock unless someone answers seven science riddles. [Emmy Award winning] Bill Nye and his team of scientists (including the rock expert "Sam Andreas", and the marine biologist "Sue Nami" ) have been called on to answer Mad Maax' riddles. The program begins as the user enters Bill's offices at Nye Labs. The building is packed with interesting machines and devices that, through virtual exploration and manipulation, will help the user learn about science. The task at hand is not a simple one, however. The riddles are obscure, and the user is not permitted to solve them until certain science facts have been uncovered. Information must be obtained through experimentation. Exploration and observation are key at Nye Labs. Clues are meant to make the user think. Some guidance is provided to the user via the Nyecom 3000, a sort of pocket communicator that retains the riddles, delivers messages (in the form of mini lectures) from Bill and his team, alerts the player when he or she is on the right (or wrong) track, and (thankfully for the spatially challenged) includes a map to help the user find things within Nye Labs.
