How fast can you solve the sums?

With 12 beautifully-illustrated & animated levels (including -1, -2, Halving, Halving -1, and Mystery Numbers) this is an app that can test, entertain and teach the whole family. It’s a great way to boost mental calculation skills.

***Available at our special introductory price!

We’ve turned learning subtraction into a fun Martian bubble-popping game. Plus, it’s all against the clock. Tap through each set of twelve sums correctly and you’ll get enough energy from the cheeky Martians to help Spaceman Sam fly his rocket back to earth. If you fail to do it in time, he’ll be stuck on the red planet until you succeed.

So, let our Math Martians app give your child a head-start on their road to Math success. Play with your child or play against them, however you play you’ll combine learning with fun. When it comes to taking the first fun steps towards successful numeracy/subtraction, we think it’s a hard app to beat.
