🧠 How the Game Works
The rules are simple:
-
Select any starting date on the calendar.
-
Players take turns to add 1 to 5 days.
-
Whoever lands exactly on the last day of the month wins!
But don’t be fooled – behind this simple mechanic lies a rich world of strategic planning. 🧩
💡 Pro Tip: Leave your opponent with a multiple of 6 days remaining to force a win. That’s right — it’s math and logic in action!
👾 Two Modes to Play
-
Two Player Mode – Challenge your friend or a student beside you!
-
Play vs Computer – Go head-to-head against a smart AI that doesn't just play randomly. It calculates, predicts, and tries to trap you with clever moves.
🧑🏫 Classroom Applications
This game isn't just fun — it's a teachable moment for:
-
Strategic thinking and logical deduction
-
Understanding modulo arithmetic (try to leave your opponent with 6, 12, 18… days remaining)
-
Reinforcing calendar math and month-length awareness
-
Practicing decision making under constraints
Perfect for Primary to Lower Secondary Math lessons, enrichment programs, or even a brain break activity.
