Game: PONG
Aim: Break the bricks, score points

Your final score is based on correct answers, bricks broken and time taken.
In this topic you are asked to look at a series of numbers from the Square numbers series and fill in the missing number.
Square numbers are a sequence of numbers that are the result of multiplying a number by itself. For example, 3 squared is written as 3² and is equal to 3 x 3 = 9. The first few square numbers are 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, and so on.
To understand how these numbers work, imagine a square with sides of length 1. This square would have an area of 1 square unit. If you increase the side length to 2, the square would have an area of 2² or 4 square units. If you increase the side length to 3, the square would have an area of 3² or 9 square units.
In general, the nth square number is found by raising n to the second power. So the formula for the nth square number is: Sn = n².
Square numbers show up in many places in math and science, from calculating the area of a square to understanding the properties of certain types of shapes and patterns.
With our Pong math game you will be practicing the topic "Square numbers" from 5th grade / Pattern / Missing term. The math in this game consists of 16 questions that ask you to identify the missing number in these square number patterns.
In our version of Pong/Breakout, there are 3 types of bricks for you to break: green bricks are worth just 2 points; yellow bricks are worth a whopping 50 points; breaking white bricks, which are worth 10 points, wins you a math question from the topic you have chosen.
You start with 5 lives. If the ball goes below the paddle, you lose a life and 200 points. The game ends when you answer all 10 questions or lose all your lives.
