Number Kingdoms: conquer the map with maths duels

Number Kingdoms turns maths into a strategy game. Children rule a kingdom on a hex map, claiming land by answering questions and attacking rival rajas in maths duels. Every kind of terrain is a different maths topic, so planning the next move means choosing which skill to practise.

How to play

  1. Choose Quick March (a small map against one rival raja, about 7 minutes) or Royal War (the full map).
  2. Each turn you get action points to Claim land (1), Attack (2) or Fortify (1). Harvesting gold once a turn is free.
  3. Claiming a hex means answering questions on its terrain topic: Rice Paddies are addition, Salt Flats subtraction, Gem Mines multiplication, River Crossing division, Temples fractions and Bazaars word problems.
  4. Attacks are best-of-5 duels. Each correct answer sends a soldier charging, and fast answers strike first.
  5. Win by capturing every rival capital, or by holding the biggest empire when the rounds run out. Streaks build Shakti, which powers up your next duel.

Maths skills it builds

  • Addition and subtraction
  • Multiplication and division
  • Fractions
  • Word problems
  • Speed and accuracy under pressure
  • Planning ahead

Why it works

Strategy gives children a reason to practise topics they might avoid. Every rival raja has a weak topic, and the game even points out the topic a player is weakest at, so practice is aimed where it helps most. Because wrong answers have real consequences in a duel, children learn to slow down for accuracy as well as speed.

Questions parents ask

How long does a game of Number Kingdoms take?

Quick March is a small map with one rival raja and takes about 7 minutes. Royal War uses the full map with more rivals and runs longer.

Which maths skills does it practise?

Terrain decides the topic: addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, fractions and word problems. Golden Hex tiles ask harder questions for bigger rewards.

Can guests play Number Kingdoms?

Yes. Guests can play Quick March straight away. Signing up unlocks the full Royal War map, badges and saved progress.

Is it competitive against other children?

Mostly the rivals are computer-controlled rajas. Some duels use the recorded army of a real player, so a child sometimes tries to beat another kid's saved record.
