Sharpen your mental math one quick round at a time. Math Games is a collection of 16 bite-sized arithmetic games. Every round takes under a minute, so it fits into a coffee break, a commute, or a queue. The difficulty adapts as you improve — or pin it to a fixed level and keep every problem the same size. PRACTISE THE BASICS • Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication and Division • Times Tables — drill any table until it sticks • Quick 10 — ten questions, one score RACE THE CLOCK • Guess the Sign — which operator makes the equation true? • Quick Choice — answer as many as you can before time runs out • True or False — judge the equation before the timer beats you • Type the Answer — no multiple choice, just you and a keypad THINK IT THROUGH • Compare — is one expression less than, equal to, or greater than another? • Missing Number — fill the gap that completes the equation • Math Crossword — a grid where every row and column has to add up • Memory Match — pair each equation with its answer • 2048 — the classic sliding-tile number game PLAY TOGETHER • Duel — two players on one device, the screen split so you face each other BUILT TO STAY OUT OF YOUR WAY • No accounts and no sign-up — open it and play • Your high scores stay on your device • Sound and haptics can each be switched off • Every game unlocked from the start, nothing held back Math Games is free and supported by ads.
