Villany one  http://villainyinc.thinkport.org/mission1/index.asp?small

Villany Two  http://villainyinc.thinkport.org/mission2/index.asp?small

These two sites teach geometry and algebra through a story “game” about bad people taking over the world.  Players have to stop them.  Besides it being a fun way to learn math, a lot, if not all, of what the characters speak is shown in text as well as heard.

 

Learn Alberta    http://www.learnalberta.ca/Home.aspx  This is a collection of sites as described below.

The three math sites are Math Under The SeaMath 5 Live, and Spy Guys Math.  Instead of explaining each one, I’m going to suggest that they’re definitely worth the time to just go and check them out.
