Welcome
to Puzzle Maths - the most challenging
maths site ever! If you fancy yourself as a bit of a numerical wiz
or if you just want to test your mental metal we've got the puzzle
just for you - whatever your age·whatever your
level.
The seven
puzzles cover a wide spectrum of maths and can be played at
different levels, making them endlessly appealing and
challenging.
Jake
and Jess are resident on the
site and they reckon they know exactly how each Puzzle can be
cracked .They'll show you the best way to play each game. To find
out their strengths, weaknesses and any other little foibles click
on the Jake Page or the
Jess Page.
Harvey the
Rabbit
No site would be complete without a resident rabbit and
Harvey is the brains behind this myriad of maths. He'll tell
you the rules of each game & pop up with top tips, hints for
optimum gameplay or just to help you out when you are feeling a
numerical numbskull.
The
Games
If you click on Games you will
see the names of the seven puzzles. Select a game, click on it and
we'll show you how to play it step by step. When you're ready,
click on Play and begin!
The
Levels
The Puzzle Maths Website is a superb way to push yourself to
your mathematical limit (and beyond!).
Some of the games are played against the clock, others have a set
number of Puzzles that you must solve before you can go on to the
next level.
Level 1 is for younger or less experienced players and it becomes
more difficult with each level until at Level 4 you are in the
realms of vintage Vorderman.
High Scores -
Level Four
For those of you talented - or lucky - enough to get to Level 4,
you can then enter the Champions League!
Click on High Scores to enter your
total at the end of a game. Each player must identify himself by
three letters - for example your initials or perhaps the first
three letters of your name. The date of play will automatically be
added so that you know that it's you!
Hit the submit button and this information will be displayed on the
Puzzle Maths High Scores Chart - Who will be Number
One?!
Download
Not everyone is lucky enough to have access to Shockwave so some puzzles will be available
on HTML which can be printed out and played on paper. Just select
Games, click a title and hit Download. This will give you a taster
- but why stay on the outside?

Information for
Oldies
Although these puzzles are fun - they are in fact built from a
strict maths framework so for those of you who still come under the
wing of a parent or guardian, just tell them to hit the
Oldies button where they can find out the background to Puzzle
Maths.
The
Challenge
Just remember two things:
Uno: It's
a Challenge so be prepared to make mistakes - if you don't succeed,
try again and then again until you've cracked it·.and you
will!
Duo:
Whether or not you play like a hot shot you are part of one of the
most exciting new ventures on the internet - you can't
lose!
