Not bad...

I bought this game as I already had brain training and I love mathematics, so I wanted a game like brain training that had only mathematical problems.
However I really did not get on with this game. I found it monotonous and without challenge.

Bad points:-

1) No charisma.
2) No storyline, or incentive to improve.
3) Not enough variety in the challenges provided.
4) The cell square method this game uses, I found very confusing. I kept getting the answer squares muddled up as there are a lot of sums on one page using this method!

Good points:-

1) Its a very good game if your mental mathematics skills are not up to scratch.


To be fair I think this game was just not what I was looking for. My basic mathematical skills are pretty good and I wanted something with a bit more challenge, or speed to it.

I didn't get on with the game but other reviews show that some people have so its an open verdict!

Summary: Its not a bad little game, but not what I was looking for.
