How it works

Open the game file in any web browser: Chromebooks, laptops or your smartboard. No accounts, no student logins and no internet needed once it's downloaded.
Pick Easy, Medium or Hard at the top. Students solve 12 problems, and every correct answer reveals part of the mystery picture. “New problems” makes a fresh set.
Answers check themselves: a right answer turns green and fills in part of the picture, and a wrong one says “Try again”. Solve together on the projector or give each student the file. The teacher answer key always matches the problems on the screen.
Each purchase includes the game file and a one-page Quick Start guide.
