Number Hive

A lot of educational games are not fun to play. But this one is! You learn your multiplication facts and train fluency. It is challenging because you don’t just have to calculate the product. You search for factors belonging to the product. I love that it is solely a strategy game, no luck needed.

Fun maths game, great for multiplication skills and strategy!

The gameplay is intriguing and I would love to give this a fair shot! Unfortunately the board doesn't scale to fit my iPhone 12 Mini screen, so the first and last columns of numbers are off screen. Also, in the practice game, the colors are yellow and orange. This can be tricky for kids to differentiate, especially if vision disabilities are at play. Is there a way to change the colors and scale or rotate the screen? Thank you!

This was a definite four stars until the update just a day or two ago, where they added a bunch of different options. Now it crashes or will not even play. It was a fun little game, simple, but effective. Adding all the extra junk has ruined it.

I plan on using this with my students this year for fluency. I’ve been playing with it for a while, but I’ve noticed the AI in the practice version will freeze up and not make any more plays after the game has had many turns.

My sixth graders struggle with fluency. I’ve utilized both the printed versions and the app for this program. The kids are so competitive and they begged to have a tournament! The adults in our school loved playing against the students as well! Highly engaging!

After introducing this to my 8th grade students, some took on the challenge to compete against each other in their down time. This game uses the multiplication facts of 1-12 in such a way that helps learn and review them while strategically placing your next move. Love it! Thank you for creating and sharing the Number Hive.

I tried this with my 6th graders and they loved it. We had 5 minute battle rounds where they had to get up and find a new partner to battle. The students were engaged and beg to play it when they are done with their independent work. How can I argue?!? Worth introducing this multiplication game to your students! ✖️ ❤️

Really fun, even addictive. Excellent multiplication practice and good strategy game. But has a flaw. If the other player doesn’t make a move in the allotted 60 seconds, the game freezes.

this game is so well done, i can’t wait to try it with my kiddo to see if it helps his multiplication struggles.. i wish more played online as i find it fun to just play as well, but it will still be great to be able to host a game for my son to join and play together. thank you for making this!
