About the Game

Math Attack is a mathematical puzzle game, built around the idea of using math operations to attack various expressions and reduce them to zero.

Each level presents a new expression involving integers, irrationals, complex numbers, or even polynomials. Armed with a limited set of operations like subtraction, logarithms, and differentiation, your challenge is to determine the optimal order in which to apply them.

There are three categories of levels presented as folders in the level select: Real, Complex and Functions. Each category requires you to deduce certain properties of the expressions you work with.

With no tutorial or hand-holding, you're dropped straight into a mathematical labyrinth, left to uncover how each operation shapes the expressions before you. Trial, error, and insight are your only guides.

Features

  • Minimalist Design – A clean and focused interface that keeps the math front and centre.

  • 39 Handcrafted Levels – Puzzles spanning three distinct mathematical domains: Real, Complex, and Functions.

  • Built-in Info Tool – Peek under the hood of each expression and visualize how different operations affect it.

  • Free-Form Level Selection – Tackle any level in any order. No restrictions, just exploration.

  • Undo & Redo – Experiment freely with different strategies and operation sequences.
