Description

Richard Scarry's Best Math Program Ever is an educational game that teaches math based on the book series and the television series Richard Scarry's Busytown. The plot of the game is that Mr. Fixit needs parts that are scattered around five different areas. These areas are the Building Site, the Observatory, Ski Mt. Busy, the Train Station, and the Hardware Store. You play as Huckle Cat and Lowly Worm to find all the machine parts.The game also has a progress report to see what pieces you need and what games you have done, which is useful for parents.

Within each world, there are three mini-games. All of the mini-games involve numbers and math for children ages 4 to 7. The activities include measuring, graphs, time, addition, fractions, etc. Every single game has a difficulty setting and a recommended age in the user guide. In the math mobile, the hub world, there is also a tangram- like game where you can make things out of shapes and write a story about them.
