Community Insight:
Quick game to keep our brain sharp.
We recommend Conundra Math for everyone. It really makes you think. Its a great game and a great learning tool.
We use this as a part of our morning routine. Good way to get the brain going.
Played a thousand times and still love it. A great daily challenge, one where Ive improved over time, so confident it helps our aging mind. App provides performance tracking but for an extra challenge/ difficulty use total time, with a goal of solving under 30 seconds.
We are 85 years old and think this is a wonderful way to keep your mind sharp. Marty Logan.
Its fast, extremely accessible brain training. Love it.
We've been playing this for years. Now we've got our 7 year old playing it.
Love this app! Math was never our favorite subject but we the brain stretch this app gives us.
Agggh! We LOVE both the numbers and the letters conundrums, BUT they are so addictive! Be warned. The higher levels are so worth it (only $1.99) but so frustrating when a seemingly impossible word is revealed (or you realize how simple one equation is) we found our scores improving after only half an hour at these so you definitely do improve with practice! But be warned you need to set a 'finish' alert.
Very much fun with math and it helps the old brain pan too.
Great mental exercise for the morning.
We have to say we really enjoy this game BUT we paid for all levels to be available. We just assumed there would be the same amount of levels to play both on our iPhone and iPad, since the game is on both devices. We have been writing the app developer for the last five years. We have yet to receive an answer. We noticed that the most current review is dated November and we figure that is November, 2020. All other reviews are between 7 or 8 years old. Ours will be the most current review. Needless to say, Ms. Pierce isnt into customer service. So we guess Ill just have to play the game with different levels on iPhone and iPad. Seriously, though, we dont want the game to be removed from the App Store.
We love numbers, so this is a fun young for us. The only problem that we have is that sometimes we're having a rough day with our thought process and would like to do The puzzles without a timer running out on us. Is there any way of changing this.
Unfortunately, even if you know the answer, the order of operations prevents you from correctly entering some equations. Quite limiting, frustrating and generally would not please many math teachers. Parentheses are essential in mathematical equations, and there is no better way to illustrate that than with this game.
We have been playing this game daily for years. It is fun and quick. We would have given it five stars because it did what it is supposed to do well. Now, when you get a correct answer it flashes "Correct!" at the top of the screen for a few seconds and slows the flow. On a less important note, you lose your game history, and the interface is slightly uglier. Whoever did this, PLEASE put it back.
This game makes us believe that we are good at math and helps us tackle problem solving in a very decent way! We would like to give a big thanks to the creators because this app is wonderful it even gets a little addicting we hope you guys make more apps like this.
Great game! Can be easy or very challenging depending on your basic math brain. We find ourselves playing it to relax while sharpening our math skills.
Gets our 72 year old brain cells working again. Recommend it as well as the words app they have.
We love this app. We just wish it had parentheses and the answers are not correct at the end. This game is really fun.
This game is great fun and exercise for the mind. It keeps your brain sharp.
Good supplement to Lumosity and word games to keep our aging brain trained.
Really helps to get the brain up to speed.
Just like Krypto without the limits.
Great game. We were a little confused about how to play, but already getting better.
This game is beyond good we love playing this game. And we're 9.
The accumulator math paradigm is a little confusing at first, but as you get the hang of it, this game becomes addicting. Well done.
We love this thought-provoking game. We are addicted to it. We play it all the time. It is our go to game when we have some spare time. We showed it to our daughter and she immediately downloaded it too. We both love it.
Fun game that helps us learn math.
Challenging, riveting, wondrous brain exercise.
Great game, love it, great for the memory.
This is a great brain exercise game. Thank you to whom ever came up with this game and for helping our brain stay working.
We like to go through a few exercises in the morning since we don't use math that much at our job, just to stay fresh. This has been a good daily exercise for that purpose.
Good game keeps us thinking. At least we're practicing a skill instead of catapulting angry birds. We like the mental math. We like being creative. We won't put this down. Big drawback for students is no order of operations. We would suggest for a solid math student to improve computation speed. We wish there were some solutions. We're stymied by a certain type of problem. We'll figure it out . Also wish there was a pause besides leaving app.
Great game! You start and never stop.keeps your mind very busy.
Good way to test your brain cells with a math game. Multiple levels to stump the smart. Play everyday.
Muy bueno, para practicar clculos matemticos. Recomendado.
Great math puzzle game! It's spectacular for improving simple algebraic speed.
This one really got our brain warmed up! Nicely executed.
Think fast your sanity depends on it.
So thrilled that we came upon this game! It really challenges you & a great way to pass time! Love it.
We love this game! Good for us who like math.
If you like number games, this is the penultimate. This gave us a splitting heachache.
Good game. Keeps your mind sharp.
A fun way to keep building on our ability to solve math.
A great game. We love the challenge cause your being timed. And math is our favorite subject. Oh boy we love this game.
This can help in keeping your brain sharp when doing math. Great for computer programmers, and people who love math in general.
This is the best difficult math game on the App Store great for practicing math on the go.
This definitely helps practice your mental math skills.
What a terrific brain boost. Improved focus and problem solving speed. Able to think on our feet again.
This game keeps your brain going we like it.
