## What is Matholotl?

Matholotl is a joyful math learning app for kids ages 5–10 — starring Splashy, a curious cartoon axolotl who lives in a sun-dappled 3D pond world.                                                                                  
Instead of drilling flashcards, Matholotl blends math practice into play:                                       
                                                                                                                    
ADVENTURE MODE
Steer Splashy around a hand-crafted 3D lake world. Splash past turtles, frogs, and ducks. Chase golden crawfish "Power Ups" for speed bursts, silver crawfish for jump powers, and bronze crawfish for a giant mode. Ride rainbows between lakes. Bounce off geysers. Every creature and hot spring greets your kid with a spoken math fact.                 
                                                            
ARCADE MODE                                                                                                    
Over 20 bite-sized mini-games covering counting, addition, subtraction, multiplication, patterns, shapes, and more. Games adapt to your child's current skill tier, so 5-year-olds get 1+1 while 10-year-olds gets fractions and negative numbers. 

AXOLOTL FAMILY 
Unlock up to 5 axolotl friends by earning stars. Give each one a name, dress them in hats (crowns, wizard hats, space helmets, and more), pick their voice, and let your kid build his/her own little pet-collection story.
TCG CARD COLLECTION                                                                                              
Complete mini-games, and defeat boss-levels to earn card packs. Rip the packs and collect illustrated math- and axolotl-themed trading cards across a rotating series, each with rare "Full Art" variants — like a photo album your kid actually wants to fill.

PARENT-FRIENDLY BY DESIGN 
• No ads. 
• No in-app purchases.
• No subscriptions.
• No account, no login, no data collection. 
• Everything stored locally on the device.
• Parent settings behind a 2-second child-lock (adjust difficulty tier, reset progress, mute music).

WHY MATHOLOTL?
Because math learning shouldn't feel like homework. A kid who loves his/her axolotl companion and can't wait to rip the next card pack is a kid who keeps coming back to practice.
