Instructions

Best viewed in full screen mode: press F11 if you are using Internet Explorer.

Type in your names. Click on the go button to play the game.

The aim is to get as many of your polygon people in line as possible.
The lines can go horizontally, vertically or diagonally.
Scores: 3 in line scores 10 points, 4 in line 50 points, 5 in line 100 points, 6 in line 200 points.

Players take it in turns to click on one of the numbers in the grid. First select the numbers in the times table by dragging one of the rectangles to the number you want. In the example, on the left, the rectangle has been dragged to the 5 to make 8 x 5 = 40. Once a rectangle has been selected the other one can't be dragged.

Click on the number you want in the grid. In the example, on the right, the 40 has been selected.

8 x 5 does equal 40 so a polygon person will fill the square.

Players have to think ahead: which numbers do you want to leave for your opponent?
