Show HN: Our "trojan horse" math puzzle game for smartphones
We've always felt that games should be fun first and educational second. With our previous game Quento (quento.com) we tried a slick, minimal game that focuses on challenging puzzles. But it was still quite obvious that you were doing math because you had to use operators to complete sums.
With Numolition we tried a different strategy by using cute artwork and investing more time in creating a theme around the core gameplay that makes the game look more like "real" games. You're still doing math, but you're less aware of it. Kind of like a trojan horse ;-)
We hope kids and adults alike will enjoy the challenging puzzles while improving their math skills at the same time :) Have a go, introduce it to the kids in your life, and let us know how it went!
Thanks,
the Numolition team
