Matobur - Tamagotchi meets math for kids - Kids raise pixel-art animals by solving math problems

by•
Matobur turns math practice into pet care! Kids adopt adorable pixel-art animals whose needs (hunger, happiness, energy) decay over time. To keep their pets healthy, they solve math problems to earn coins, then shop for food and items. Features: adaptive difficulty levels (addition -> subtraction -> multiplication -> division -> mixed) Beautiful retro pixel art with smooth sprite animations Progress reports for parents No ads, no in-app purchases, no internet required Built for kids ages 4-12.

Hey everyone! I'm the solo developer behind Matobur. 👋 I built this because I was frustrated watching my kid zone out during math practice. Every app I tried was either drowning in ads or so boring that it felt like punishment. Then I noticed something: my kid could spend hours caring for virtual pets. So I thought - what if the pet needed math to survive? That's Matobur. Your kid adopts a pixel-art animal, and its hunger, happiness, and energy drop over time. The only way to earn coins for food and items? Solve math problems. The difficulty adapts automatically so it's always in the sweet spot - challenging but not frustrating. What I'm most proud of: - Zero ads, zero in-app purchases, zero data collection - Works completely offline - no account needed - 20 difficulty levels from basic addition to mixed operations - My kid now asks to "feed his cow" - which means 20 minutes of voluntary math practice I'd love your feedback - especially from parents. What would make this more useful for your family?
