Number Ramble

Features
Read full description

A game of multiplication and division designed to build connections and patterns, rather than the isolated memorization of facts. How can you move between numbers by only dividing and multiplying by prime factors? Over time you'll learn times tables, not just as a collection of facts, but as series of patterns and number families. As with all our games, our goal is to spark the huge amounts of mathematical thinking children need to truly master the fundamentals of mathematics. • Up to 4 players on the same device • No ads and no in-app purchases; links to the App Store sit behind a grown-ups' check • No data collected: everything stays on the device Made by NumberClub, whose math games are used in hundreds of schools.
