Description:

Play against the computer in the demo - the full version supports 2 players. The board is 7x5 and has 6 uncovered tiles with numbers on them. Take turns in setting up equations that target a number on the board. The number produced by the 1st equation is used in the 2nd.

You have 3 numbers to start with, and can choose between the operands + and x (the full game also supports - and —). For example, if the numbers are 2, 3 and 8, the equations could be '2x3=6', followed by '6+8=14'. This would target a 14 on the board. Points are given for the number of colored tiles touched by the target. So some numbers on the board are more valuable than others.

An online manual is provided and hints are available during the game - but they cost points! Statistics are kept on multiple players' performance.

This packages math drills in an intriguing logic game!
