Read more about Cluefinders at: Wikipedia Official Site: Learning Company The ClueFinders is a series of edutainment software aimed at children aged eight to twelve. The series is produced by The Learning Company as a counterpart to their Reader Rabbit series for older elementary-aged students. The ClueFinders include Joni Savage, Santiago Rivera, Owen Lam and Leslie Clark. The kids are accompanied on all their adventures by LapTrap, an anthropomorphic laptop computer who floats in the air. Note that, although it is often spelled as "Clue Finders," "Cluefinders" or "Clue-Finders," even by sources such as the Internet Movie Database, the series' main title is properly spelled as one word with the "F" capitalized. The first ClueFinders title was released in 1997 and most of the subsequent games were released within the next two years. 2000 and 2001 each saw one new ClueFinders game, both followed by a different noneducational bonus disc, but no new games have been released since that time. However, bundles including multiple previously released titles, such as The ClueFinders Math Learning System 2007, have since been created. Although the ClueFinders' adventures generally seem to take place in the contemporary real world, all the products in the series contain some elements of either fantasy, science fiction or both, with merely the continued presence of LapTrap pushing the series into the realm of science fiction. Nevertheless, the opening titles from The ClueFinders 5th Grade Adventures place the series in the present day.
