Munch or be munched in the Math Munchers™ DELUXE software program, a fast-paced educational game that makes practicing math facts a ton of fun! You move a lively Muncher around a 3-D grid and munch math facts while avoiding the six new wild ‘n’ wacky Troggles. You get points for every correct answer that you devour, and if you score enough points, you can get on the Hall of Fame.
If you want to avoid those pesky Troggles, you can choose to play the game “Troggle-free.” You still get points and can get on the Hall of Fame, but in this Troggle-less game, you can concentrate on mastering your math facts without any distractions.
