Numenko is a hot new math game! When I was in school (a long time ago ha ha) the main subject I had problems with was math. I love that this game is challenging, educational and most imporant FUN! If I had this game when I was in school, I know I would not have struggled as much as I did!
How Numenko was created:
When my daughter Stephanie was at school she had problems with maths. I tried to buy a game that might help her, but there were no games available at that time. I liked maths so I decided to make one myself. Within a week I created a board game, unfortunately although it worked, it was slow and laborious and there was no fun in playing it.
I put the game away and on many occasions over the years I got it out and tried to work on ways to improve it. Many years later, after my daughter had left school, got married and had two children of her own, I cracked the problems with the game. I came up with the Multichoice.
I suddenly had a game that worked properly, it allowed maths to be played by all ages, helped children improve their number skills whilst playing a game. From the board game I called Numenko came the table top game (Numenko-in-a-bag) that allowed children to play with adults on an equal footing. It has also been used by schools for Special Education Needs.
I was sent Numenko-in-a-bag to review. I liked that this game was very easy to learn. The setup of this game is kind of like Scrabble. It is very easy to get into this game since it is so much fun, that you even forget you are working on your math skills. I was worried that this game was going to be so complicated and hard for me to understand but it wasn't. I was very pleased at the outcome of playing this game. The only thing that I did not like is that my kids could not enjoy this game since there were too young to understand the concept of the game. It is for ages 7+.
