We are glad to support 99math in their quest to improve the gamified platform and make the learning process more efficient and interesting.”The startup has recently hired team members – product manager Hanna Talving, an ex-CEO of extremely viral SayAt.me, and Ihor Nikolaiev, an ex-lead game designer and producer on Gardenscapes and several Gameloft titles. “This sounds like this is a process that all startups run. Last year, the company piloted its monetization tests for the home game and it was successful. Despite the fact that math is one of the most important subjects for building a career and future success The company will be adding social features and new game design, allowing children to train specific math skills like a mobile/video game as well as to support the spirit of competition between friends in the app and the desire to win through solving math problems, Kusmin said.“This is the year when we kind of more focus on building out the whole game or taking it to a whole new level,” Kusmin said. The 3-year-old 99math has a multiplayer math game that teachers use in classrooms around the world. 99math is a free tool for teachers and schools to engage students and it works as a platform for game-based math practice.
