Team Arc-Fy created Times Trials as a collaboration between designers, developers, illustrators, multi-media experts, strategists, PR pros, parents, educators, and children. It's our mission to co-develop a math learning game that elementary and middle-school kids will want to play.
By making learning fun, we want to improve math proficiency:
Absorption: Video games can instill equations by rote, allowing them to retain them without thinking about them.
Motivation: The motivation of the game is two-fold. Kids with math anxiety can watch their raw score increase during solo play. For kids who love to compete, there's always someone else to challenge.
Focus: Screens can be distracting, but video games are easy to focus on. Times Trials draws kids in, making it easier to learn and flex their problem-solving skills without the pressure.
