Math Blaster : In Search of Spot an edutainment game in a line of educational products created by Davidson & Associates and a remake of their earlier New Math Blaster Plus! from 1991. 

Spot and Blasternaut are preparing for a journey aboard their spaceship, only to find that the ship is not functional. 

Blasternaut, jumping to conclusions, sends Spot to repair a mechanism known as the "polytronic combustion regulator" and Spot reluctantly begins repairs, while the former goes below deck. 

As Spot works, the Trash Alien flies by, captures Spot and departs, leaving garbage everywhere. Blasternaut, upon discovering this, contacts his superior officer, Galactic Commander, and notifies her of the situation. 

Galactic Commander immediately identifies the criminal and sends Blasternaut on a mission of four objectives.
