All three ask Adults questions. The level changes how much help you get, not how hard the maths is.

No clock, three lives and two helpers. Take as long as you like.

Medium10 questions · 3 lives · 25s each

Twenty-five seconds a question, three lives, one helper.

Hard12 questions · 2 lives · 15s each

Fifteen seconds, two lives, no helpers. Bigger score if you hold on.

For the grown-up in the room

  • Every answer is explained, right or wrong. That line is the part that teaches.
  • The results screen breaks the round down by topic, so you can see what to practise rather than just a score.
  • Read-aloud can be switched on with the speech button if it helps.
  • Nothing is stored anywhere but this device, and no score from here goes on a public board.
