### 3/5 — Solution disappears

*2023-08-08*

My only complaint at the moment is that as soon as I solve the square, it is no longer visible.  How about displaying it with Congrats along side, and then the menu choices.

### 1/5 — Are you kidding me!!!

*2023-08-05*

This is supposed to be a math game for little kids and some of them are impossible to make work! For instance on the three by three grid, you are given one with the number 8 in a fixed position that cannot be moved. It is in the middle of the third column and the last position if the third horizontal row. The only to pairs if numbers that add up to ten to put with the 8 to make the magic number of 18 (the constant) is 7 & 3 and 4 & 6. No matter how you position them you cannot solve the magic square. If all the rows and columns add up to 18, the diagonal does not work! So yeah, let’s give number puzzles to young children that cannot possibly work. Good one!
