Math Swipe Jr. is an education math game. We take advantage of iOS's swipe feature for an original game for learning basic addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Math Swipe Jr. not only helps children learn basic math, it helps improve the speed in which they can recall numerical answers and different paths to the same answers. Math Swipe Jr. is a game that improves mind sharpness and helps to train the brain to think quickly and effectively.
The concept behind Math Swipe Jr. is simple. A number is given to the player to answer. Numbers and Operators are on the screen. The player swipes accross the numbers and operators needed to arrive at the answer. When swiped the images explode and make a tone to acknowledge correct and incorrect answers. Available are 5 different "levels" to play. Addition, subtraction, multiplication, division and all operators available on screen at once.
Each is a timed excersise and is Game Center enabled as well as saving scores locally to the device. Negative numbers are not dealt with as this is more of an early concept of numbers for young children and the idea is to grow with speed and accuracy similar to the flash cards idea.
Big Monk Games uses the iToque2D game technologies provided by Garage Games exclusively for their apps at this time. Best known for their iPad only App "Cat Games". A games designed specifically for cats, Big Monk Games plans to continue iOS development and start Windows PC development using Torque 3D. Big Monk Games has now released 4 app for the iOS platform with the 5th being planned for late 2012 release.
