Mixed-Up Math is a mathematical puzzle where you must find the correct equations to solve the puzzle.
It features: 22 different puzzle layouts/sizes (including boxes, crosses, mazes & ladders); optional hints; optional timed game; optional high-number limit (25, 50, 100 or 250); background music; and more.
This is a challenging and, sometimes, infuriating puzzle! It is also great fun and a good brain stretcher. Not for the calculator crowd, you have to re-arrange the numbers in the boxes so that the puzzle comes out correctly.
The equations run in different directions and you must drag the red number into its correct square for it to become black. You have a set number of failed attempts (normally 6) which is rarely enough.
We recommend that initially you play with lower numbers, simple puzzle layouts and without the timed-game option turned off. Once you are feeling comfortable with the game you can slowly increase the complexity of the puzzle and add timing to your games. You can also slowly increase the highest number.
Mixed-Up Math is great. It will exercise your logic responses and sharpen your mental mathematics. It is also great fun with a real feeling of satisfaction when you win.
We loved Mixed-Up Math and recommend it for anyone who likes puzzles.
