Math Runner is one of the arcade games in the Diemakora collection. It loads in seconds and needs nothing installed. Math Runner follows the oldest recipe in gaming: one clear rule, one clear score, and the urge to try just one more time. From the tags you can already tell that the core mechanic involves numbers and arithmetic; it teaches or practises a skill — often maths, reading or logic — while you play.

- Play the first run purely to learn. Notice the rhythm of the obstacles, then start a fresh run and aim for a clean start.

Tips and tricks
- Play in a quiet tab with nothing else running. Small frame drops cause missed timing that feels like bad luck but is not.
- Take a short break after three or four failed runs. Arcade games punish tired eyes more than any other genre.
- Find the rhythm. Most arcade games have an underlying beat — taps, jumps or moves that fall on a regular interval — and once you feel it, your accuracy jumps.
- Learn the first thirty seconds perfectly. The opening is the same every time, so it should never be where you lose.
- Because this is a Educational game, say the answer out loud before you click; it makes the learning stick.
Who will enjoy it

Difficulty-wise it is simple rules, high skill ceiling. The controls are tap and drag based, which makes it comfortable on touch screens as well as with a mouse.
