From the team behind Plus Path. New mechanic: 4 equation cards on screen, exactly 1 is true, find it in 60s. 50+ difficulty tiers, no streak-loss pressure. Equation Match is a 60-second arithmetic puzzle. Each round shows you four equation cards — for example "3 + 4 = 7" and "5 + 2 = 8". Exactly ONE of them is a true statement; the others look right at a glance but fail basic arithmetic. Find the truth. Tap it. Move to the next round. Stay sharp for the full sixty seconds. WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT • Pure mental math. No timers-as-luck, no power-ups, no pay-to-win. Every point comes from reading equations correctly, fast. Beat a personal best by thinking sharper — not by spending money. • Built on a real cognitive science foundation. The difficulty curve is grounded in published research on math anxiety (Ashcraft & Moore, 2009) and flow-state learning (Boaler, 2015). Every difficulty tier was hand-tuned and playtested with real students. We did not ship random equations. • Calming by design. There is no streak-loss notification, no public shame, no daily login loop. The round is a clean 60 seconds. • 50+ difficulty tiers, replayable. Levels get harder as the numbers grow and the operations mix. There is a leaderboard for your fastest rounds. • Offline-first. The game runs on a plane, on the subway, in a country with no data plan. All rounds are bundled. HOW TO PLAY 1. The round starts. You have 60 seconds. (Your very first round is a practice round with no timer.) 2. Four equation cards appear on screen. Read each one. Exactly one is a true mathematical statement. 3. Tap the true equation. The other three are wrong — they look right but fail basic arithmetic. Trust yourself. 4. A new round appears instantly. Combo bonuses start at 5 in a row (+50) and 10 in a row (+200). 5. Use a coin to ask for a hint, replay a round, or revive after a wrong tap. 6. The round ends at 60 seconds or after three wrong taps. Your score is saved. WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT Most "math games" on the App Store are dressed-up flash cards or timed multiplication drills. Equation Match is a focus game: can you read four equations at once and pick the one that holds up? The mechanic is closer to chess puzzles or Go problems than to flash cards. The game rewards pattern recognition, not reflexes. We chose a 60-second round, not a per-question timer, because research on flow state (Csikszentmihalyi) and math anxiety (Ashcraft & Moore, 2009) shows that constant time pressure increases anxiety without improving learning outcomes. One round = one focus window = one calm breath. We hand-tuned 50 difficulty tiers, not 50 random decks. Each tier adds specific cognitive load: bigger numbers, mixed operations, or both. You can feel the difficulty move; you can also feel the satisfaction of a tier mastered. DESIGNED FOR EVERYONE • Adults who want a calm five-minute mental workout during a coffee break. • Students looking for arithmetic practice that does not feel like homework. • Older players who enjoy Sudoku, Kakuro, or nonogram-style logic games and want something fresh. • Anyone recovering from math anxiety. The game has no streak-loss notifications, no public shaming, no comparison to other players. ACCESSIBILITY • VoiceOver-friendly: every equation card and combo bonus is announced. • High-contrast color theme available in Settings. • Sound effects can be turned off independently of music. • Difficulty is genuinely progressive: tiers 1-5 are approachable, tiers 40+ will take a real think.
