Do you need to get pupils practising not just the ‘four rules’ of number, but also topic work and problem-solving?
MathMania 2 (ages 7-11) gets pupils navigating mazes by answering revision questions on Numbers, Angles, Time, Measurement, Shape & Space and a ‘Lucky Dip’. The aim is to win points and get past maze obstacles.
With enough points to leave a maze, they can enter another, or win bonus points by tackling one of eight Numeracy puzzles: Coins, Towers of Hanoi, Sliding Blocks, Magic Squares, Fill It, Eureka, Years and Navigate.
Across a network, pupils can navigate mazes at the same time as their friends (stand-alone use is of course available) and what's more, to make things strategically more interesting, they can drop question 'bombs' to stay ahead of them!
Like the other titles in the Mania series, the software can be adapted to offer the features you want; the more 'game-like' features can be reserved as rewards and levels of play are completely under your control.
- Includes a Maze Designer and Custom Question Writer
- Prints worksheets to be completed away from the computer
- Fully configurable - define the topics and puzzles pupils will meet
- Puzzles can be played as independent problem-solving activities

"This sophisticated maze game aims to reinforce Key Stage 2 areas of Number, Time, Measure, Angles, and Shape and Space. Pupils navigate the mazes by answering multiple-choice questions and game style puzzles are solved for points. MathMania is differentiated to four levels corresponding to each year group’s NNS objectives. Teachers can control the level and content of pupils’ learning and set custom questions for the maze. Pupil progress is easy to assess through the High Score table and records. The program adjusts difficulty levels according to pupil progress. The Maze Designer Activity extends pupils’ ICT skills as they create a maze to navigate. MathMania (one of a series of 'Mania' programs for KS2 and KS3 Maths and Literacy) can be played on stand-alones, or across the network or internet in multi-player settings. Multi-player requires some technical knowledge but the accompanying Handbook sets out all the possible procedures very clearly." - Evaluate Click here for more...
"Mathmania is a game in which the player can escape from a maze by answering Number or Topic questions. Points are won for correct answers - or lost for incorrect ones. Once the player has escaped from a maze they can tackle a puzzle before moving on - carrying their score with them. There are some potentially useful maths puzzles withthis software, including Sliding Blocks; Magic Squares and Towers of Hanoi." Schoolzone Click here for more...
"Stunning games and graphics, great sound effects and challenging maths activities." - TES Teacher
"I'm frequently impressed with Topologika's software and this is no exception. MathMania provides a fun context in which students practise numeracy skills - without being aware of it. It provides the kind of repetition and overlearning which helps embed maths skills." - Simon Midgley, Rhyddings School Click here for more...
"Many thanks for the excellent MathMania which was installed on my 10 year old son's computer this afternoon and which has been difficult to drag him away from ever since!" - R. Mooney
