Product Description
One of the best ways to sharpen your basic maths skills is through repetition, and Professor Kageyama's Maths Training: The Hundred Cell Calculation Method gives you the opportunity to do maths exercises in a new, fun way! Renowned Japanese Professor Hideo Kageyama designed the Hundred Cell method to improve children's school performances. In his method, Professor Kageyama takes a 10-by-10 cell grid and places a single-digit number in front of each row and column. A person filling in the grid solves each cell by calculating the numbers listed at the start of the row and column. The key to the Hundred Cell method is to fill in each cell as fast as possible. The calculation itself may be simple, but the challenge comes in finishing faster each time you fill in a grid. It's this repetition that sharpens your maths skills! Like other mental fitness software in the Touch! Generations series, Professor Kageyama's Maths Training sports a daily training mode with recommended exercises. After training for five days, your level increases and along with it the difficulty level. In addition to the Hundred Cell calculations and daily training, Professor Kageyama's Maths Training features 40 additional exercises based on simple maths skills. After finishing an exercise, you're awarded a medal based on your performance. With the Hundred Cell method, you can refresh your basic maths skills for school or everyday life!

I really like this. It is very positive and encouraging & I found the games fun. I deliberately didn't dpend ages practising the games tho as that is how I have ended up bored with other similar (ish) software.
happy with my ourchase, it isn't identical to brain training, but will appeal to anyone who likes that title.
Great game for improving mental arithmetic November 16, 2008
5 out of 6 found this review helpful
Bought this game as my 12 year old is still struggling with times tables. Too much reliance on calculators and kids today can't do simple mental arithmetic any more. If this is your problem then this game is likely to help, especially if you can motivate too. Simple addition, subtraction, multiplication and division problems to be done in your head and quickly. Presented in a way that is reasonably fun, addictive and motivates you to do more and get better, but it's no competition for the PS3 and GTA4!! Some irritations like problems in recognising some writing, though you improve with time, and too much time wasted between games, though you can tap your way through.
Excellent for developing mental maths skilla November 29, 2008
6 out of 8 found this review helpful
I am a primary school Head Teacher and bought this game with the intention of buying several copies for use in the classroom. I am extremely impressed as it covers many more mental maths strategies than the description suggests. My seven year old son did find it difficult to form some of the numbers correctly, but with a little practise he was getting used to it. A minor grumble is that I think the target times a little too fast for many children, but they are rewarded with Bronze, Silver of Gold medals regardless of their time. I will definitely be trying to budget for the purchase of this game for use by pupils from P3 to P7.
Compulsive! April 26, 2008

This game is a fab way to waste a few hours. It soon got compulsive and I found that I didn't want to put it down. I only quit when the batteries were flat!
Highly recommended for those who, like me, are total math freaks.

I loved this game. My favorite thing about it is you are absolutely required to 'attend class' and take the tests for a certain amount of time before you advance a level. By that I mean you have to show up at least every day for (at least 4 days in a row) before you advance. There is an option to turn off the sound effects as well as the music. You can also play peer to peer. There is division, multiplication, subtraction and addition (at least only on lvl 1 there is)
If you have trouble with maths this game is for you.
