Math Rescue
A retro edutainment platformer where you rescue stolen numbers from a villain's lair by solving arithmetic puzzles.
GamerScout Verdict
Harmless nostalgia for players who remember edutainment games, too simple for serious math drill but brisk enough for casual play.
Compare Prices(6 stores)
Every store in this table quotes us in euros, so the EUR figure is the price the seller actually set, not our arithmetic — which is why EUR is also the currency we rank in. We only list an offer here when the store gives us its price in euros, so nothing in this table is a number we invented.
Pick USD, PLN, GBP, CAD or AUD in the header and we convert from EUR at the European Central Bank reference rate — converted amounts are prefixed with ~. Your bank or the store may apply a different rate at checkout. We never hide offers based on where you are: everyone sees this whole table.
We may earn a commission when you buy games through links on this page — at no extra cost to you. It never affects our rankings or verdicts.

About Math Rescue
Math Rescue is a straightforward edutainment platformer from 1992 (re-released in 2014) that wraps basic arithmetic drills in a silly villain-vs-hero premise. You jump through single-screen levels, dodge enemies, and collect missing numbers by answering math questions. The framing is campy and nostalgic rather than cringey, and the platforming itself is responsive enough to stay fun for short sessions. If you're looking for something genuinely educational with teeth, this isn't it - the puzzles max out at simple addition and subtraction. But as a kid's introduction to timed mental math wrapped in retro gaming charm, it's harmless and moves briskly enough not to overstay its welcome.
