If you love arcade driving games and want to improve your number skills too - then this is the course for you! With plenty of speed and action, Maxtrax looks and plays like a full-on driving game - but you have to use your numbers skills to be a winner.
The aim of the game is to race around the different tracks as quickly as you can, answering number questions as you go. To finish the race in pole position you need to record the quickest driving time and the best maths score.
In Challenge Mode you need to manage your race budget. Make sure you have enough money to pay your entry fee, buy your car and pay for any upgrades you need, and remember to take care when you're driving - because any repairs will have to be paid for out of your winnings! With three different levels, five tracks and five cars to pick from, you'll have plenty of time to improve your number skills while you enjoy the thrills of Maxtrax!
