This game consists of a very large number of puzzles. You are
presented with four digits. Your job is to make the number 24
out of the digits using only addition, multiplication, subtraction
and division.
For example:
5 9
2 2
can be solved as ((9 + 5) - 2) * 2.
Or:
8 1
9 3
can be solved as 1 * 8 * (9/3).
The puzzles are presented in flashcard form only: there is no
direct interaction with the game. However, you >can< drag the
current flashcard around the screen. If you give up, press the
"answer key" and see one of the valid answers. You can press
the "new puzzle key" until you find a puzzle to your liking.
Hope you enjoy it. I find it to be a good travel game. Its also
good for drilling kids in arithmetic and can be played with a
timer and several people if you like...
