Astro Math Releases on iPad
February 28, in the year of our Lord 2012 --
‘Astro Math’, exclusively available for the Apple iPad®, has
just been released on the App Store by specialist independent
developer, EnsenaSoft! This fun arcade game has you flying
through space fighting off alien attacks in a fun and
educational way, and when you land on a planet, it is time to
solve math problems earning you money for ship improvements!
In ‘Astro Math’ your spaceship got sucked into a wormhole and
you ended up far away from Earth. Featuring 32 star systems you
are challenged to overcome all of them before you can safely
return to earth, and as you progress through each of the star
systems, you arrive at a planet. To earn money on a planet you
are faced with 10 unique mathematical problems. And for every
question you answer correctly, you are awarded money to spend in
the shop buying more health or improvements to your spaceship,
which in turn can help you survive the next star system.
‘Astro Math’ features customizable types of in-game challenges
affecting the way players are presented with math problems.
Categories include: addition, subtraction, multiplication,
division, and extra thought.
‘Astro Math’, being an educational game of highest quality,
recommends that pencil and paper are kept handy and nearby as a
parental aid to solve particularly tricky math challenges. It is
expected for children to ask for help at first, as they learn to
read the problems, and decide what math steps are needed.
EnsenaSoft has worked very hard on creating a polished title
with a seamless flow of gameplay sprinkled with math challenges
in a visually stunning and immersive environment. The game is
ideal for 1st through 5th graders, but is enjoyable by everyone
and anyone, regardless of gender and age!
In addition to the full version of ‘Astro Math’ now available on
the App Store, the developer has also released a Lite (FREE)
version of the game featuring the initial 4 star systems
(compared to the 32 star systems available in the paid version).
Furthermore, the Lite version lacks the end-of-journey movie of
you arriving (safely) back home on earth.
