Maxi & Prof. Rebus is an educational game to teach kids and interested adults lessons about environment protection. It is a collection of several games and other multimedia contents.

The interactive story is about Maxi who visits her uncle Rebus. This story is told in pictures in which the player can click on several objects to trigger animations and sounds. There are also quizzes where the environmental knowledge is tested. In the video section, there are several videos with wide spread topics to watch, e.g. about exhaust reduction or the dehydration of a lake.

Outside the story, the player can choose to play a few other games like a detective game where in front of a keyhole running figures have to be recognised. There are also other pictures which work like the ones in the story mode. [source:mobygames]
