About

Trio Math

Features
Read full description

Trio Math is arithmetic played as territory. Place a tile so three squares in a row make a sum that works — 4 + 2 = 6 — and all three become yours, including any your opponent was holding. A line reads from either end, so + and − always come together, and so do × and ÷. Your score is squares owned. Never the answer to the sum. • Play online against real people, 45 seconds a turn • A Daily Board — the same three puzzles for everyone, for 24 hours • Training that reads each step aloud, for players still learning to read • Free Play, where you choose the rules, the numbers and the opponent • A season road with Bronze, Silver and Gold Both players are dealt the same four tiles and draw from one shared bag. No advantages are sold. Everything is earned by playing.
