   Really cool, lost two games in a row, finally won my third one after the computer got extremely unlucky.

   Ya so as others have mentioned the M.N. needs to be made with a full expression (at the least, a starting number, operator, ending number). Going to try making this more clear on the instructions. Thanks for your feedback!

   Adding options for practicing specific numbers is a neat idea, will brainstorm some ideas for this. Sorry the random generation seemed limited, I'll see what I can do. Right now it generates the grid numbers randomly just picking from

   Saw this game when looking at other fast math games. Definitely a good one for more precise intentional practice!

    Thanks for the additional info! Glad to hear you at least didn't run into it again. I'll definitely do some more testing just incase

    Ah my bad, I see what you're saying now. Adding this to my todos Only potential problem I can see is if the grid line is for example: 3 + 4 + 3 And they accidentally press "3 + 4 +" Hard to tell if they meant to press 3+4 or

    Thanks :D Will add swipe controls to my todos, I decided against adding it because the other word search games on the site will occasionally overflow off-screen (so swiping is required to move around the grid) but might add it as a toggle f

    Haha ya that's how it works atm. My idea was that you could run a few rounds to practice certain operators and watch how your average scores improve over time. And since the rounds are only a minute, it's low commitment. Going to

    Hey so the ending squares can still be used vertically which is why they're there. Example: 1 + 8 + 4 + 2 + 3 + 3 + 2 + 9 Here you could use the left side to do 1 + 3 vertically. For a larger grid to prevent misclicks, try going to set

    If you want another tough challenge, try division operators with longer equations and advanced division enabled. Quite evil at times. Thanks for feedback on the timer, that seems to be common so I'm going to work on getting an alternat

    Thanks for playing and for the feedback! Definitely going to work on getting out an calmer alternative mode.

    Hmm that is odd, shouldn't be possible. Just to be sure, you were playing with just addition operators right?

    That's exactly how it works so this is quite interesting...looking into it

    Hey yeah so you need a full expression (at the least, a start number, operator, and end number) for it to be a valid highlight. Will try to make the instructions more clear for this

    Thanks for feedback! Same question for you as well: would you want separate statistics for this type of mode?

    Hey, thanks for checking it out! I had the idea for a "zen" mode where you could play forever with no timer. Didn't think of adding lives though. Cool idea. Would you want separate statistics for these "lives mode"
