“A brilliant little game that uses dice and my mental facilities to send zombies back to the graveyard. This maths game is fun and challenging, and a treat for those who are in secondary school to reinforce numeracy, or for older people like me to enjoy stretching our minds.”

Learn your times tables as you play

Top Marks for this maths Card game
PLAY AGAINST THE GAME, NOT EACH OTHER
In Times Square, everyone either wins or loses together. Cooperative play ensures confident players can support teammates who are struggling, suggesting different ways of using the dice, or game tactics, but the final decision is always left to the current player!

“I was inspired to create a times tables maths card game that worked in a similar way to my first maths game, City of Zombies. I’d been asked if I could create a times tables game with Zombies that go up to 144, which is what Times Square focuses on.
I wanted a game that could be easily carried around and was quick to set up and play. Times Square is perfect for a quick 10 to 20 minute game for 1 to 6 players”
Matthew Tidbury ~ ThinkNoodle Games
