- and STE's.

- INTRODUCTION
-
- 1st. Maths is a game aimed at young
- children who are learning the basics
- of counting, addition and subtraction.
- A short memory type game is included
- to give the child an occasional break.
-
-
- INSTRUCTIONS
-
- Once loaded, the 1st. Maths selection
- screen appears. Use the mouse to
- select your game by clicking on the
- box of your choice - ie. counting,
- addition, subtraction, or the game.
- You may also choose to quit 1st. Maths
- from this screen.
- MATHS GAMES - The child is given a
- series of questions, and answers them
- by moving the mouse over one of the
- numbers at the base of the screen and
- clicking either button. If he presses
- the 'END' box then he his shown the
- number of questions asked and the
- number of questions he has answered
- correctly. After a short tune is
- played the selection screen is again
- shown.
- MEMORY GAME - This short game is can
- be played by one or two players. The
- child moves the mouse over his first
- choice, and then repeats this process
- for his second choice. His score is
- increased if a pair has been found. If
- not, then play is given to the second
- player. Play continues until all pairs
- are found, or until the 'END' box is
- chosen. In this case all pairs are
- shown, and the selection screen is
- again shown.

- UNDERSOFT
-
- We are a group of programmers that
- see a great gap in the ST software
- market for children's software - both
- educational and games. We produce this
- software as shareware and encourage
- you to copy it and give copies away to
- friends and enemies. We do ask that
- all files remain unaltered on the disk
- if you choose to share it around. If
- you use and enjoy the program then
- please send an amount of money,
- suggest $15-20, to the address below
- to become a registered user. (Does
- this mean I'll soon be rich? Ha Ha!)
