Based on the classic arcade game "Missile-Command," Tux must defend his cities. In this case, though, he must do it by solving math problems.
TuxMath has an educational purpose and is starring Tux, the Linux mascot!
Here are some key features of "TuxMath":
· Cute, animated graphics
· Sound effects and music
· Optional on-screen input, for children who can't use a keyboard (great for touchscreens!)
