Game Rules


Objective of the Game:

Form correct mathematical expressions by moving between the nodes of the game to achieve the highest possible score.

1. Node Composition:

  • Nodes in the game contain operands (numbers) and operators (+, -, *, /).
  • The nodes are arranged in a grid.

2. Player Movement:

  • The player moves in the grid using the arrow keys or touch controls.
  • The player can only move to adjacent nodes and cannot visit the same node more than once.

3. Expression Validation:

  • When the player has formed a complete expression, the game evaluates it.
  • If the expression is correct and the result matches the value of the destination node, the player is awarded a point.
  • If the destination node does not have the correct value, the player loses a point.

4. Scoring:

  • Each time the player forms a correct expression and moves to a node, they earn points.
  • Each time the player makes a move, regardless of the expression's result, they lose a point.
  • The score can increase by 5 points for each correct expression.

5. Win and Lose Conditions:

  • The game continues as long as the player’s score is positive.
  • The game ends when the player’s score drops to zero or below, or when there are no more valid moves available.
