*PRESENTATION : Type : Exerciseur méthodologique Cycles concernés : cycle 4, seconde Domaine du socle : 4 Compétence visée : Raisonner - Utiliser un raisonnement logique et des règles établies pour parvenir à une conclusion *DESCRIPTION : The Equations Game est un exerciseur méthodologique portant sur la résolution d’équations du premier degré à une inconnue, en cycle 4 et en seconde. Les calculs sont effectués automatiquement, l’exercice lui-même portant sur les actions à accomplir : ajouter, soustraire, multiplier ou diviser chaque membre de l’égalité par une même quantité (non nulle dans les deux derniers cas !). 15 niveaux, correspondant à des degrés de difficulté croissants, sont disponibles. Il n’est possible de passer au niveau suivant que si le niveau en cours est validé (obtention d’au moins une étoile)

Equation Genius is an equation game where you solve algebra-style math puzzles, compete for faster times, and progress through increasingly challenging equations. Every equation is automatically generated, and all solutions are whole integers. Play Mode tests how far you can progress as new equation patterns and richer structures are introduced level by level. Improve your speed and accuracy, beat your personal best, and compete on the Game Center leaderboard. Take on the Daily Challenge with a new equation every day. Solve it using your limited attempts, earn points based on your performance, build your streak, and compete for your position in the seasonal Game Center leaderboard. The leaderboard resets each month, giving everyone a fresh chance to climb the rankings. Share equations with friends using a link and see how quickly they can solve them. Practice Mode lets you master individual levels and improve your personal best, while Multiplayer Mode lets you compete through Quick Match, challenge a friend using a room code, or practice against AI. Key Features: • Play Mode — progress through levels and compete on the Game Center leaderboard • Daily Challenge — a new equation every day with seasonal Game Center rankings • Monthly leaderboard resets give everyone a fresh chance to climb • Daily streaks for consecutive successful challenges • Practice Mode — master individual levels and improve personal bests • Share equations with friends through playable links • Auto-generated algebra-style equations with gradual difficulty progression • All answers are whole numbers — no decimals or fractions • New equation types and structures at higher levels • Some advanced equations may have more than one valid solution • Time-based scoring that rewards faster solutions • Quick Match — compete against random players online • Play with Friend — invite someone using a room code • Play against AI without affecting your stats

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: The Equations Game at none against Equation Genius's 1. The Equations Game also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.6). Equation Genius's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 23 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
