About

Times Tables & Math

Multipop is a math game for children: addition, subtraction, times tables and division, drawn with bubbles so they see why the answers are right. No account needed. A NEW DAILY CHALLENGE EVERY DAY The Daily Challenge gives every player of the same age the same problems, once a day. Play it, see your points, then compare on the world ranks. ROUNDS THAT GROW WITH EVERY PLAYER Every round follows how the player is doing: when everything comes easily, the problems get a little harder; when they slip, the next round is gentler. The aim is to stay in the sweet spot where most answers are right and a few make them think. Tables go all the way to 20. SPEEDY, PUZZLE OF THE DAY, PRACTICE A TABLE Speedy: as many problems as you can pop against the clock. Puzzle of the Day: one little brain teaser. Practice a table: pick any number from 2 to 20 and watch every problem build with bubbles. KIND BY DESIGN When an answer is wrong, the bubbles show how the right one is built, and that problem comes back later until it sticks. No lives, no timers except in Speedy. WORLD RANKS WITH MADE-UP NAMES On the ranks, players only appear with a made-up name like Brave Bubble and their country's flag. Start a crew for family, friends or a class with one code. Grown-ups can turn the ranks off in Settings. There is no chat. PIP AND THE WHOLE FAMILY Every right answer earns points, points raise your level, and levels unlock outfits for Pip, the bubble mascot. Several players can play on one device, each with their own level. The grown-ups grid shows, for every fact, what is sure and what is still being learned. Learning stays open to everyone. Between rounds the app shows a short ad, never during a question. Multipop Pro removes the ads and allows unlimited players. No account. Progress stays on the device and the games work offline; the ranks only get a made-up name, a flag and points. Light and dark mode, 34 languages. Questions or ideas? Write to info@jcom.llc.
