Confusing for kids

The idea is promising but the execution is poor. You are thrown into the game without any instructions of what to do. I bought this for my son and he had a hard time getting into it. The counting down timer is also stressing and one should be able to turn it off, but the game has no settings at all.
I think my mistake thinking that this was a math instruction game with settings and approachable for kids , it's not. It's a math multiplication game that you either get or you don't.

Actually fun! Could use some more features.

This is one of the very few math games I have come across that is actually fun. Not only is it fun, but it has an arcade feel to it, helps teach rapid recall, and helps associate the bonds going both directions.

It needs some more features. First, it needs the ability to with make custom levels with specific number bonds, or needs to have the ability to select which number bonds are used. It has a lot of two digit multiplication that seems way to advanced, way too soon. Are all the bonds even represented?

Next it needs addition bonds as well as multiplication.

Finally it needs a pulsing music track that varies by level and some cool visual effects to with it when you get the right answers.

But that last bit might be too much.

A great game

I totally love this game. As a maths teacher, I would recommend it to any parent wanting to help their children with times tables and factor pairs. Great work Erik Lee.
