Math Quest
Solve your way to the summit
About Math Quest
A journey in eight rooms, where each obstacle needs a different kind of thinking to pass. Three lanterns, campfires to fall back to, and treasure for getting through.
Ankhdase tracks 6 distinct skills in Math Quest, including Adding within 20, Subtracting within 20, Multiplication facts and Division facts. Because mastery is estimated per skill rather than per game, the questions shift toward whatever a student is getting wrong — and away from what they have already proved they know.
How to play
- Each room needs a different kind of answer to pass — a missing number, a comparison, some change.
- Right answers move you along the map and add treasure.
- A wrong answer costs a lantern. Lose all three and you go back to the last campfire, not the start.
- Campfires are the tiles with a flame on them.
Skills Math Quest practices
- Adding within 20
- Subtracting within 20
- Multiplication facts
- Division facts
- Making change
- Comparing numbers
Mastery is estimated separately for each of these, which is what lets the difficulty move independently — a student can be fluent on one and still be fed easier questions on another.
