I think the Bird Hunt game has a lot of potential. Incidentally, you may have wondered whatever happened to SVG (scalable vector graphics). Jon Udell happens to have a relevant article on just this subject.

Remember SVG? The acronym stands for Scalable Vector Graphics. In a posting to the xml-dev mailing list back in 2000, XML co-inventor Tim Bray said: �SVG is going to change the face of the Web.� If that prediction had come true, we�d have used SVG to visualize the results of the recent election. Instead, as Macromedia�s (Profile, Products, Articles) Chief Software Architect Kevin Lynch noted on his Weblog, the election was closely divided, but developers voted overwhelmingly to use Flash for interactive maps, dynamic tables, and live charts.
