Stack

Stack is a fast-paced educational arcade game where math is your building material. You have three minutes to construct the tallest, most impressive skyscraper in the city, but the only way to build is to solve the problems!

• Solve to Build:  Choose to answer addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division questions OR ALL 4 to stack new floors onto your tower.
• Streak for Style: Keep your streak alive to increase your score multiplier and upgrade your building from basic concrete to premium architecture.
• No Collapse, Just Comeback: Mistakes reset your streak and multiplier, but your building never falls down.
• Time is Your Resource: There’s no per-question time limit; take your time or blitz through questions. Manage the overall 3-minute clock wisely. Faster, accurate answers mean more floors and higher scores.

Math is the gameplay. How high can you stack?
