PC Play & Learn: Learning Fun with Dan and Whizzo (commonly abbreviated to PC Play & Learn) was a series of British educational software produced by International Masters Publishers in association with act-two, and released throughout the early to mid 2000s, delivered as part of a subscription. In these games, you would play with four dinosaurs, Dan, his older sister and Pink's friend Delilah, and Dan's pet, Whizzo. The series would come in separate CD-ROM discs in the subscription, along with a booklet and a mini binder.
Gameplay
In the games, you would play around with the dinosaur characters in the Play Zone (later the Tree House), learning a basic skill like counting, music, letters, and more. Along the way you would collect dinosaur egg pieces, and collecting 4 would grant access to a special dinosaur for that disc (E.g. Sportysaurus in "Let's Make Friends"). Each disc would have a different theme, like "Under the Sea"
