Would you make a good history detective?

If this is a question that you have been asking yourself all your life, here is the answer. The Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) have been showing a series called History Detectives and I was paying particular attention to games and quizzes. I came across the game On the Case and I only wished it was longer.  You get to pick the case you wish to investigate, and after an explanation of The Case,  and the historical context, you are presented with 3 choices which influences the course of the case and the steps that follow. At the end you are rewarded by being acknowledged as a Five-Star History Detective,  although I have the feeling that all players of this game are praised in this way! Have a go! It’s fun!
