Weapon of Maths Destruction Walkthrough

Weapon of Maths Destruction is no easy math game, but that's what makes it so much fun to play. Set up to more closely resemble typical war or action games, the focus still remains on answering math equations quickly and accurately as is this case with most of the math games online. The 'war' type format, however, makes the game a lot more appealing to older kids than the typical equations on a chalkboard format most of the other math games online offer. The equations are also much more difficult, encompassing all areas of the basic math operations, right from the beginning and getting gradually harder as the game progresses. That just isn't the case with most of the other math games online that focus on the more basic, simple operations. This is the ideal game for something who has little trouble with simple equations but needs help with more advanced addition, subtraction, multiplication and division questions.

The basic setup of Weapon of Maths Destruction is pretty easy to understand. You are playing the game as a purple tank. You need to shoot at the other tanks to destroy them before they're able to destroy you. Each time you take a shot from an enemy tank, you'll lose a heart. You start the game with three (shown at the top left of the game screen). If you lose all three hearts, your tank is destroyed and you'll have to start over from the beginning. The math part of the game comes into play as soon as you fire on an enemy. In order to hit your enemy, you'll have to answer a math equation. The type of equation and the level of difficult with vary throughout the game. Sometimes it will be fairly easy. Other times, it will be difficult. You only have a certain amount of time to answer each question, though, so you need to be prepared for anything.

As if the equations don't make Weapon of Maths Destruction difficult enough, you also have to contend with the amount of time it takes your weapon to reload if you don't answer a question quickly enough. This feature definitely makes this particular math game much more difficult than many of the other math games online. If you need to wait for your weapon to reload, you won't be able to fire a second shot nearly as quickly, leaving yourself vulnerable to attack. For that reason, it's even more important to answer quickly but carefully. You don't want to miss your chance to take out your enemy before it can hit you. If you answer the question quickly enough that reload time is eliminated. The status of your reload is shown at the top left corner of the screen just under your hearts. It's important to know where you stand with your reload so you can plan your strategy accordingly.

There are different types of tanks you'll be facing off against in Weapon of Maths Destruction. The basic tanks you face at the beginning of the game are really the easiest tanks you'll be facing at all. They have much simpler equations consisting of only two digits. The more advanced tanks will have much more complicated equations, often consisting of three or more digits. They'll be harder to take out, but they also reward you with more points. If you want to do well in this game, you need to remember the differences between the tanks. If you see a more advanced tank, you need to be aware that the equation is going to be more complicated and you need to be prepared for that. That is really the greatest thing about this particular math game. The difficulty level steadily increases to keep the game interesting and keep it challenging.

While Weapon of Maths Destruction might be a little too difficult for the younger kids, older kids are going love this math game because it doesn't really feel like a math game as you play. The action based format allow it to feel more like a regular game as opposed to the other games in the genre that often require simply answering equations as they appear on the screen. That difference will make older kids want to play the game a lot more and will allow them to have more fun with it. The fact that they're learning and improving their math skills in the process will just be an added bonus. This is also a great one for adults who want to improve their math abilities. The challenge is what makes the game entertaining and the tanks are what make the game unique.

If you want to do well in Weapon of Maths Destruction, the best way to handle the tanks is to attack them as soon as they appear. As you progress in the game, more and more tanks will appear on the screen at one time. You don't want to get overwhelmed. You also need to avoid getting sandwiched between two tanks. That will make it much, much harder to defend yourself. It's also a good idea to answer the questions as quickly as possible, eliminating the need to reload. If you happen to find yourself between two tanks, you need to be able to answer the question quickly. Having to wait to reload will almost certainly mean the end of your game.

Overall, Weapon of Maths Destruction is a great math game from the older kids and the adults that want to improve their math skills and have fun at the same time. The biggest advantage this game offers is that it shouldn't really be all that hard to get your kids to play it. For the truly motivated parents, use this game to help teach your younger kids how to deal with more complicated equations. It might be a little too difficult for them to play for any length of time in the beginning, but encourage them to stick with it and keep trying. They'll learn more as they play which will give them a great leg up when they start doing more complicated math in school.
