Games have a fascination for people which make them ideal vehicles for instruction of an informal nature. Described here is an instructional game (GEO) in which the user learns elements of Canadian geography as she chases a spy around the country. The game utilizes artificial intelligence approaches to represent and put to use various types of knowledge (knowledge of geography, of tutoring, and of the student). Our experience in designing and refining the game is discussed, as well as prospects for extending this approach to other learning situations.
