It seems like an obvious pairing: all of the fun of controlling a baby gorilla to counteract the tedium of doing math. Throw in some multiplayer action and what do you have? A game that’s weird, and not all that fun.
Donkey Kong Jr. Math has two basic modes: one mode where you compete with a second player using various numbers and operators to arrive at a target number, and another where you have to solve the math problem presented to you and supply the correct answer.
It’s every bit as fun as it sounds.
There’s not a whole lot more to say about this game than that. It’s not really worth seeking out and playing unless you’re just learning math. And even then, flash cards would be a better investment of time and money.
