Subject: Seismic Duck 1.6 - new version of seismology game
It displays sound waves travelling underground. Learn how geologists
use sound waves to look for oil under the ground. Experiment yourself.
Then try your turn at helping the duck find oil before going broke.
Despite the geophysical basis for the game, at easy levels even
grade-school children can play the game. At the hard levels, the game
is challenging even for professionals.
