About Monkey Math
Monkey Math is a platform puzzle game with arcade and strategy elements from ScienceRobot, released on September 10, 2025. It blends math problem-solving with fast-paced platforming, inspired by classic titles like DK Jr. Math. Play as a monkey navigating levels by solving equations to progress. Available on PC, it supports single-player, multiplayer, and split-screen modes. The game emphasizes speed and accuracy, challenging players to balance platforming jumps with quick math answers. Its retro vibe and competitive scoring system make it a pick-up-and-play title for casual and competitive gamers alike.
Gameplay
Each level is a series of floating platforms with math problems displayed on them. You control a monkey using arrow keys, leaping between platforms to select numbers or operators. Solve equations correctly to land safely; wrong answers drop you into the void. Later levels add time pressure and multi-step problems. Multiplayer modes let you race friends to solve equations first or team up for co-op challenges. Split-screen supports up to four players locally. The controls are tight but demand precision, as miscalculations or slow reflexes cost progress. Sessions often last 5-15 minutes, making it ideal for short bursts of competitive problem-solving.
What Players Think

Critics average 82/100, praising its "clever fusion of math and platforming." Community moods are split: 68% find it "Fun," 15% "Frustrating," and 37% enjoy "Retro charm." Achievement completion sits at 65% (48 total), with unlocks for high scores and speedruns. User reviews highlight "Challenging but rewarding" and "Great for quick sessions with friends." Some note the difficulty spike in later levels, but most agree it’s a solid pick for puzzle fans.
PlayPile's Take
Monkey Math works best for players who enjoy quick, competitive puzzles and local multiplayer. At $19.99, it’s a low-risk buy for its genre. The math mechanics are tight but may feel dated to some. Achievements add replay value, but the 65% completion rate suggests some struggle with harder levels. Not a must-play for everyone, but it’s a solid time-killer for math enthusiasts and households with kids. If you crave split-screen chaos and don’t mind arithmetic, this one’s worth a try.
