Individual discs

To move a disc around, click and drag it.

To turn a disc over, just click it.

Groups of discs

To consider a group of discs, click and drag a brown grouping box around the discs you want. Use the corner handles to adjust the size of the grouping box.

To show/hide the sum of the discs in a group, click the black circle along the top edge of the grouping box.

Turning over all discs in a group

To turn over all discs in a group:

1. click inside a grouping box to show a triangle marked with a minus sign (if the triangle isn't already showing)

2. click the triangle.

New game to go live today! Have a read below to see what you think!

The game starts with 4 options. These are:

Workshop: This mode allows players to enter any quadratic expression and use the game board to help complete the question and check their solution.

Arcade: Here players have a choice from 4 different difficulty levels of questions. Working through 3 levels of basic quadratics and a final level of some more complex quadratics with values greater than 1 for the x^2 coefficient.

Instructions: Give the player a brief step by step instruction page of how to use the game.

Website: Links back to the games page.

Below is a shot of the arcade mode page:

Player can select a question and then attempt to complete it, below I have chosen the third green question to have a go at!

You can see that behind the discs is a green glow, this will actually shine red if the player makes a mistake giving them instant feedback on their decision and prompting them to rethink.

Below is a screen shot of the workshop

Here players can enter any quadratic they like and use the board to answer their questions! The game will check the solution and tell the player wether they are right or wrong!

My friend told me that it could't work for all questions so he tried to give me a a harder question to solve... piece of cake ;) (see below)
