Matego
Do not make war, but play Matego with a friend and improve your math! The goal is to eliminate the number army of your opponent. But take care... you are also under attack yourself! The game is very flexible: you can choose the level and the size of the armies, you can play at the right or at the left side and also you can test your math skills against the computer or with a friend. You "fight" in the following way: move the cursor (the blue or red square) to the line where you want to attack, make the number in the cursor larger or smaller until it is equal to the sum of the first two numbers of your opponent and "fire"..It's also possible to make the multiplication, division or subtraction or add all the numbers. The faster you play the more points you will receive. The High Scores list will increase your motivation! Matego can be played in English and in Dutch. Our Review: Your skills with the big four of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division are once again put to the test with Matego, although this time the choice is up to you, and the pressure is on. Matego looks and sounds like any other shareware educational game, yet is much more fun than usual. The controls are very intuitive, ensuring that you are firing off answers like the fastest gunslinger in the West - just make sure they are right, or you leave youself open vulnerable. While this demo is extremely crippled, offering only an extremely brief, and disappointingly easy game, the registered Matego should be customisable enough to ensure ensure long-term appeal - great edutainment.
