Kids

2000

You may need a DOS emulator such as DOSBox to play this game.

A math trivia game for kids. Quizzes single-digit problems in all four arithmatic operations. When I was a child my dad wrote a game called Kids which was basically just math flash cards. When I was sixteen I decided to remake it, and this is the download you have in front of you today.

I added in only a little bit (the frowny face on incorrect answers), and I didn't get things entirely as I would have liked. The timer doesn't work because I wrote the game in QBasic, but did not know how to handle timers in that language. Division makes no sense because while I do remember there being division in my father's program, I did not know division when my siblings and I played it. It is obvious now how to program it, but the source code for this game is lost.
