Here is a concise “How to Play” guide designed to fit perfectly on your tablet-friendly interface or as a popup instructions manual.
🏆 How to Play: Place Value Pro
Goal: Correct the total sum of the hidden digits by building the expanded form.
1. Start Your Quest
Tap the “New Quest” button to generate a new secret number. The game will reset your cards and clear the workspace.
2. Reveal the Digits
Tap each of the 6 Place Value Cards (from Lakhs to Ones).
As you tap, the digit will be revealed.
The Expanded Form Tray at the top will automatically update to show the value of that digit (e.g., if you reveal a ‘5’ in the Lakhs column, it shows 500,000).
3. Listen for Clues
Need help? Tap the “🔊 Listen” button. The tool will read out the values of the highest digits to help you visualize the number.
4. Calculate the Total
Once all cards are revealed, the Total Sum input box will appear.
5. Verify & Level Up
Tap “Verify” to check your work.
Correct: You’ll hear the number read in words and increase your Streak. Every 3 correct answers, you reach a new Level!
Incorrect: Don’t worry! Double-check your addition and try again. Your streak will reset, but you can keep trying until you get it right.
💡 Pro Tip for Tablets
Use the Expanded Form Tray as your scratchpad! It shows you exactly how much each digit is worth, making it easier to add them up in your head.
