Description:
Strategy Heads, like its companion Math Heads, creates a TV-like environment by interspersing game shows with a preview channel, a shopping channel, and a "Get A Head" channel in which a player can create her own contestant by selecting a head, body, and accessories. The three mathematical games are based on geometric reasoning and problem solving. Eye Gotcha poses geometric puzzles such as predicting what pattern a series of folds and cuts of a piece of paper would produce. Mystery Theater tests the player's ability to visualize the effects of geometric transformations such as "shear" and "motion."

Mystery Theater tests the player's ability to visualize the effects of geometric transformations such as "shear" and "motion." Mondo Mazes combines navigation through a maze with geometric transformations to the maze. The player must modify the maze to create a path to valuable goodies, then follow the path using directional arrow keys. Each of these games can be played at 3 different levels. Players amass points (dollars) by solving puzzles and winning games. These can be used in shopping for things such as new heads for Get a Head, additional geometry puzzles, and suggestions for off-computer activities. Players can shop until their credit gets too low for additional purchases
