Whiz Racer by Enigma Games Makes Learning Math Fun

The educational car racing game provides entertainment while helping kids sharpen math skills

2012-07-27

TAMPA BAY, FL, July 27, 2012 (Press-News.org) Enigma Games announces the release of their latest game, Whiz Racer. It is not your usual car racing game - this one is brain powered. Players must solve math problems to power their cars. The more correct answers, the more power to their car and the greater the car's speed.

Whiz Racer players face 8 unique challengers, including math genius Professor E, who test their math skills and speed in addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. Those who master each of the 10 levels and defeat Professor E become the ultimate Whiz Racer.

"Our goal was to build a fun and challenging game that was also educational," said President and CEO Xavier Moore. "Due to the declining math scores of our children, it was also an obligation for us to be part of the solution."

Players can choose from 8 paint jobs to customize their car, and 5 different tracks to race. The best time is saved for each level, and progress is automatically saved, allowing for casual play.

Whiz Racer is currently available for Android devices, and coming soon to iOS, PC, and Mac platforms.
