简介
Can you make the sums work out?
In this game you are given a set of sums in a grid, and a collection of numbered blocks. Simply drag the blocks into the slots in the grid, until the sums (across and down) all add up correctly.
You can choose the puzzle size from an easy 2 x 2 to a near-impossible 5 x 4. You can also choose which operations will appear (out of plus, minus, multiply and divide).
There is no limit to the number of puzzles that can be generated for any choice of options, and hints and solutions are also included.
By default, calculations go stepwise from left to right or top to bottom. If you wish, you can turn on operator precedence in the settings. If this is set, multiplications and divisions in any row will be carried out first.
玩法说明
Simply drag the numbered blocks into the slots provided. If you prefer, you can click on a block to select it (it will flash) and click again where you want to drop it.
The top button gives you a new puzzle using the current settings.
The next three buttons are 'reset blocks', 'get a single hint', and 'get complete solution'.
The bottom button takes you to an options screen where you can adjust the difficulty to your liking.
Suggestion: The 2 x 3 starting setup is pretty easy. When you're comfortable with that, try setting the puzzles to 3 x 3, and give yourself a single hint to start you off.

Your bad faith is remarkable, regarding your answer to my last comment. Why would you even select "Math and Educational" tags in a game that can only mislead young people in mathematics learning ? Have you ever heard about algebra ? Awaiting for an even dumber answer than before...
I'm sorry if my reply was short, I meant to extend it, but the edit button was on top of my name and I couldn't click it. Here is my thinking: (1) This is a game which in my opinion can legitimately be considered educational insofar as it gives good practice in mental arithmetic. (2) The rules state clearly that the calculations are done stepwise from left to right, and top to bottom, and that no operation has precedence. (3) I don't think it is misleading; any child capable of solving these puzzles is capable of understanding that precedence rules may apply in one situation and not another. Anyway it's clear that some people feel strongly about it...[ EDIT: Operator precedence for multiply and divide is included as an option now.]

There is something pretty wrong with the arithmetics here... if you are trying to do a math game, don't burn math rules in the process please: multiplications/divisions are done before additions/substractions, and not from left to right. Trying to adjust myself to the internal logic of your game is a pain in the ass...
I thought about this, certainly, and it is mentioned in the help file. The newspaper puzzle that gave me the idea does it the same way I do. Perhaps it would help to think of it as a series of two-operation sums, rather than as a single equation with operator precedence. I will consider including it as a option in the future. One downside of using operator precedence would be that divisions would kind of be a giveaway because there are only so many possibilities for division between the limited set of block numbers.

I submitted a bug report before viewing your reply to sunshadow87...
Let me check the tags you selected for this game... Hmm Maths ? No. Educational ? No. 1/5 until you fix the multiplication/division priority.
You are mistaking a notational convention for maths.

Operator precedence now added as an option.
