I learned a bunch of stuff about Christianity from Symphony of the night, Japanese history from Persona and how to read a map of Tokyo from SMT. Still terrible at the last one though.

>How would I know Europe? I live in North America!
Yeah, I'm sure he would have done just as good with American state flags.

Only reason I remember anything about European geography is because of piracy and ship merchant games.

I learned how helicopters work from trying to make one in Besiege.

As a kid I always thought helicopters went up and down by spinning the rotors faster or slower. How they actually do it is they rotate all of the individual blades at once so they generate more or less lift.

And all helicopters have at least 2 rotors. If you only have one then the spinning of the blades causes the body of the helicopter to rotate in the opposite direction to conserve angular momentum. So you have to have a small side rotor to counteract the spin or a second primary rotor rotating the opposite direction.

My brother learned how to read by playing video games. He's dyslexic and had trouble spelling and reading, but he learned how playing games like Warcraft 3 so that he could communicate in team games and the like.
