Rui:

A very interesting topic! I have not done any research in this area, so I included a link to what is available on your topic in RG.

Best regards,

Debra

There were a number of educational videogames released in the early 1990s that were themed around ocean ecology, including Operation Neptune and EcoQuest.  There were also earlier games like Odell Lake that dealt with aquatic biology and ecology, though not specifically ocean literacy.

Do you know NOAA's games about environment? http://games.noaa.gov/
