Math-A-Maze
Version 1.7   -  Freeware

In Math-A-Maze, you must find your way through a maze of numbers and mathematical operators, starting in the left-hand column and finishing in the right-hand column. How do you know what the correct path is? Well, you are given the final sums of anywhere from 1-8 equations on the right-hand side of the playing field. The path through the maze will carve-out the required number of equations whose totals will be the same as the totals required and displayed on the right.

Mazes are randomly generated for infinite variety and there are board sizes from 4x4 up to 8x8 for all skill levels. Want to learn more? Download the game; it's freeware and it's only 197 kb.

In addition, there is a special synchronization feature that allows you to synchronize the maze generation across multiple computers (without networks or modems). This is great for head-to-head competition in the classroom.

Finally, anyone becoming a member of the Reasonable Games website (via a one-time payment of $12) will receive a special activation code to "Turbo-charge" their copy of Math-A-Maze. What does that mean? It means, you will be able to access board sizes up to 10x10 and create more complex and challenging mazes that use double-digit numbers instead of just single-digits.

Previous versions of Math-A-Maze gave "type-mismatch" errors for users who had their computer's regional settings set to something other than English. Version 1.7 fixes this problem and the game should now work regardless of the
regional settings of
your computer.
