Maths Chase

Building math fact fluency can be a grind, and Maths Chase leans into game mechanics to make that repetition faster and slightly more fun. This simple browser-based program presents quick-fire questions—often times tables or basic operations—and has kids answer under gentle time pressure while a character “chases” them across the screen. Designed as a lightweight practice tool, it tracks correct answers and speed, giving kids an immediate sense of improvement. Parents appreciate that there’s nothing to install, many games are free, and sessions can be short bursts instead of long lessons. Because the focus is on speed, it’s best suited for students who already understand the underlying concepts and just need to automate facts. For anxious learners, turn off sound, lengthen time limits, or frame it as a personal challenge rather than a race.
