Creative indie dev finally finds a way to lure kids from Fortnite to maths practice

A screenshot from Maths FPS: Solve or Die video game.

Does your kid love Fortnite more than maths? Then one creative father and game developer might have the solution. Carlo Lax is making Maths FPS: Solve or Die, which is exactly what it sounds like: a first person shooter where you have to do sums to survive.

The player must defeat robots displaying maths problems by shooting the correct answer on their body parts. It's reminding some parents of the retro game Math Blaster, but with gameplay that has much more chance of appealing to today's players (see our guides to the best laptops for game development and the best game development software if you're inspired to create your own action-packed educational game).
