How to play Gem Explorer
Are you ready to dive into data? In this game, you need to help the diver collect as many underwater jewels as possible.
Move the diver around with the mouse or with your finger to collect the jewels. But watch out for the jellyfish! If you hit a jellyfish, you’ll have to start over again. After catching jewels, you’ll see them on a piece of graph paper. Plus, a pie chart will show you how many of each color you collected. Which jewel did you get the most of? Select the correct color. If you answer incorrectly, the game will correct you. Then, play again and watch your score rise in the top right-hand corner of the game screen.
