What is Left Overs?

A unique puzzle game that combines problem-solving with pattern recognition

Left Overs is an engaging mathematical puzzle game where you answer questions to eliminate answers from a grid. Here's the twist: not all the values in the grid are answers to questions! Some are "left overs" - extra values placed as distractors. Your challenge is to answer all the questions correctly, identify which values remain, and calculate their total.

The Core Concept

  • A chosen selection of random questions from our question bank will be presented on screen
  • A bank of answers will be shown including all the correct answers, plus additional answers which will be left over
  • Click questions to answer them and cross off the corresponding value
  • Find the pattern - which values are left over?
  • Calculate the total of those remaining values
