The Blaster Learning System is an educational video game series created by Davidson & Associates and later published by JumpStart (formerly Knowledge Adventure) after the two companies were acquired and merged by CUC Software. The games primarily focused on mathematics, later expanding into language arts and science, and spawned an animated children’s television series in 1999 called Blaster's Universe.
Starting in 2011, development of the series focused on an online version of Math Blaster played through a browser or mobile app rather than standalone game software.[1] On June 13, 2023, JumpStart Games announced the closure of the company and that they would end support for Math Blaster on June 30, 2023.[2]
