A completely free maths practice game for Years 3-6, built by a parent. Serious question engine underneath, explorer adventure on top, nothing to buy and no ads.
skills across six curriculum strands
authored question templates
difficulty rungs for year-level fit
worded scenarios for applied practice
What it is
Question families drawn from olympiad textbooks, mental-maths tricks collections and the Australian Curriculum, reviewed by a qualified academic. The engine generates fresh questions from them, so practice never runs dry and never repeats.
Difficulty adapts inside each skill and mastery waits for enough evidence. Wrong answers are misconception-tagged, so mistakes become precise teaching moments.
The motivation loop is built on sound pedagogy first, then the Octalysis game framework, then fun. Rewards celebrate earned progress; nothing important can be bought and nobody is ranked.
Why you can trust it
No monetisation, and none planned. No ads, no subscriptions, no real money anywhere in the game.
Core skills map to Australian Curriculum v9 content descriptions at the code level. Enrichment skills deliberately reach beyond.
No sign-up, no emails and no public profiles. A pseudonymous learner id, an explorer nickname and the child's maths progress are stored so the app can remember their journey. See the privacy note.
Started as competition practice for the developer's own son, after the available apps proved repetitive, unmotivating and expensive. Read the full story.
