Munchmath

An educational arithmetic game. Choose addition, subtraction, multiplication or division and a level from 1 to 9, and a problem appears in big digits. Dial the answer with the stick and press a button. A right answer moves the Numnom one crumb along the path for 10 points; after every answer, right or wrong, the Minus Cloud behind it drifts one crumb closer. Reach the checkered flag for 100 points and the next board is a level harder. Let the cloud catch up and it zaps the Numnom: 50 points lost and a level easier. Three wrong answers on a board mean a catch. A wrong answer is shown beside the right one. The Numnom has three lives, and clearing the level 9 board wins. A scoreboard shows problems, right, wrong and a grade in per cent.

Controls: Use either controller. Push left or right to pick a digit, up or down to turn it, and press a button to answer. On the title, up and down choose a line, and left or right change the operation and the level.
