Times table facts drop from the top of the screen, and the only way to stop one is to know it. Type the answer, press Enter, and the fact disappears. Let one reach the bottom and you lose a life; lose three and the game is over. It runs in the browser with nothing to install, on a laptop keyboard or a phone.
It starts slowly, with one new fact every few seconds, so there is time to think. Every ten facts cleared is a new level, and at each level the facts fall a little faster and arrive a little sooner. The 2s and 5s are soon quick enough; it is 6 × 7 and 8 × 9 that decide how far a game goes.
Every fact that lands is listed at the end with its answer, and remembered on this device. The same list feeds the multiplication quiz, and a button under the results prints a worksheet of only those facts, so the next round of practice goes where it is needed.
Facts fall down the screen. Type the answer to any one of them and press Enter to clear it. A fact that reaches the bottom costs a life, and the game ends when all three are gone. A wrong answer costs nothing but the time it took.
Both numbers run from 1 to 9 by default, so everything from 1 × 1 to 9 × 9. Open “Change what to practise” before starting to play with a single times table, or with a wider range.
Yes. Press Pause at any time, and the game also pauses itself if you switch to another tab. The facts are hidden while it is paused, so it is a break rather than a chance to read ahead.
The multiplication quiz covers the same facts one at a time, with an option to turn the clock off entirely. It suits a child who freezes when things speed up, and the facts they miss are collected the same way.
