Math Academy – Simple and dumb

Math Academy is a free to play algebra-based puzzler. You swipe through buttons of numbers to clear the board and end with zero.

The swiping itself is satisfying enough, with some nice sounds and a scruffy, handwritten art style, but the puzzles are mostly either too dull or too complicated.

Problem-solving quickly becomes frustrating, leading to a more haphazard, trial and error approach.

Worse, the overcomplicated puzzles are underwritten by only simple – and sometimes incorrect – maths, so there isn't even much educational value to completing them.

So although Math Academy contains an interesting root in its swiping mechanic, its puzzles provide little enjoyment or education beyond that.
