Computer math game with different dope ass Robots?

Does anybody remember an early computer game that was like, some kind of hallway with doors and different robots - maybe even one with a single wheel for legs, similar to Gizmoduck? I feel like it was a math skills building game? Am I losing my shit?

Would it be "OutNumbered! A Super Solvers Math Adventure"?

I had both running off my sister's Macintosh LC3

This has got to be it. Holy hell. I haven't seen this since I was... maybe 10?

OMG I was JUST thinking about this game the other day. I was trying to explain this game to her that I played when her age. She was....not impressed.

You're melding two games into one.
Both were Super Solvers, but the one with multiple robots was Midnight Rescue. The one with the math problems was Outnumbered, but only had a single robot.

You’re totally spot on!

Did you have to take photos of the robots to “capture” them? The one I’m thinking of was more reading related.
I loved Super Solvers Midnight Rescue

There’s a few DOS emulators that you can actually play it online

They had a word munchers game too. Those two plus Carmen Sandiego and Oregon Trail. They were all a big part of my introduction to PC gaming.
