Players solve increasingly difficult equations as they fall from the top of the screen before they hit the bottom. Quick mental calculations require a lot of rote training to master, but by incorporating that repetitious learning into a game such as this makes good sense. It’s well worth the purchase price as it can grow as a child’s maths proficiency increases, or cater for a range of children in the family. Parents can view detailed progress reports to identify areas of weakness. 85%” -PCUser, September 2011
