In the first variation, the player will have to solve regular math problems.
He first chooses the kind of operation (addition, subtraction, multiplication or division), next the skill level (1-3) and then is presented with the problems.
He must type in the answers, and the computer will register the time elapsed and the number of current problems solved.
If the player fails twice to solve a problem, the game is over.
The second variation displays algebraic problems.
The player selects the desired skill level (1-3) and has to enter the missing variable to each problem, and the rules are the same to the first variation.
The third variation is a addition or multiplication table game.
The player chooses addition or multiplication, then the number he wishes to practice.
Echo! is a basic Simon game (as invented by Ralph H.
Four colored numbers (red, blue, green, and yellow) will appear on the screen.
One of them will light up, and a tone will be played.
Then it is the player's turn: he has to match the lit up number.
Then, the first number will be light up followed by a second one.
The player has to match the sequence and it will keep increasing indefinitely.
If the player fails three times to match a sequence, the game is over.
About Nintendo DS
The dual-screen, touch-enabled Nintendo DS (2004) became the best-selling handheld of all time, helped by its huge and genre-diverse library. Cartridge-based DS games have held up well physically over 20 years, and complete-in-box copies of the system's biggest sellers (Nintendogs, Pokémon, Mario Kart) remain very accessible for new collectors starting out.
Gamevaro tracks Maths Play for Nintendo DS with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Maths Play to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This NDS release dates back to 2008.

Market insights
Rarity & condition
Maths Play has a steady sales history on the tracked marketplaces, meaning enough copies circulate to establish a reliable market price.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
