What part of the school curriculum is covered by this CD-ROM?
Of the 32 games only 3 are directly related to the skills that are

What is actually tested and trained in the other games?

Normally not, but too slow or faulty number recognition is one of the causes of dyscalculia (math learning difficulty).
A very frequent error in reading or transferring numbers is wrong sequence, e.g
