Towers and Bricks

About Towers and Bricks Android Game

Drag a brick block to a tower where brick block size is mathematically divisible by tower width, and you will add or subtract the number of floors equal to the quotient between brick block size and tower width.

Clear and score towers by getting neighbouring towers equal in height. The more towers you can score in each move, the more points you will get. Clear all the towers in time to complete a level and get a time bonus. The next level will challenge you with bigger tower widths and brick blocks, that is more difficult math, and less time to clear all towers. Score two or three towers at once, and plan impressive chain reactions.

Features:

* Exercise the four calculus functions and boost your automaticity in performing them

* Learn to quickly see and get a feel for products, factors and divisibility in numbers

* Get in occasional touch with the rowdy prime numbers

* Fun for all ages, with a smooth ladder of difficulty and global highscore list for inspiration

* Possible to play by counting blocks in the first few level, but then you will have to use the figures for width and height when the brick boundaries gradually fade away.

* A real and addictive puzzle game designed for the fun of playing it, with an underlying math challenge inspired by actual educational math training tasks and tests. No chocolate covered broccoli! :-)

* Designed for big tablet screens as well as for smaller phone screens

The math essence of Towers is that the number of bricks in a brick block must be divisible by the width of the tower it is dropped on, i e towers can only be raised up or lowered by a whole number of floors. This is easy enough in the first few levels, when you spot that a 4 bricks block will raise a width 2 tower by 2 floors, but what about that 56 sized brick block? Will it work on a tower of width 4, and if so, how many floors will it build?

This brain game challenges and aims to boost your basic operational math skills, since playing requires a steady stream of quick divisions, additions, subtractions and multiplications in order to solve the towers. Gaining automaticity in these fundamental regards improves your higher level problem solving performance.
