It offers a 3D environment  in which players carry out missions in multiplayer or, in some cases,  solo games. Players face mathematical obstacles, which, when solved,  allow them to advance and score points. There are now four distinct  missions available in DimensionM: TowerStorm, Swarm, Meltdown, and   Velocity. (In addition, DimensionU offers two standalone single-player  games, Evolver for pre-algebra and Dimenxian for algebra.)<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Like DimensionM, DimensionL provides an immersive 3D environment in  which students score points in games that involve correctly answering  questions pertinent to the topic. The literacy games in  DimensionL&#8211;which are, like DimensionM, TowerStorm, Swarm, Meltdown, and   Velocity&#8211;cover language conventions, parts of speech, reading skills,  writing skills, and vocabulary for various skill levels or grades. The  literacy games are targeted toward students in grades 3 through 9.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DimensionU expands educational gaming multiverse with literacy games &#8212; from The Journal by David Nagel Educational game developer Tabula Digita has launched the DimensionU Learning System, an expansion of the DimensionM series that now incorporates an all-new gaming universe, DimensionL, focusing on literacy skills.
