Factor FrenzyTM helps reinforce basic multiplication
and division skills in a fun, new way. With three
games and two levels of difficulty, Factor FrenzyTM
challenges players to be the first to “ring in”with the
correct answer. The internal scoring function tallies
points and the number of correct answers. Play as a
review game to build skills or just for family
entertainment. Any way you play, you learn!
Getting Started
Battery Installation
You will need:
3 AA batteries, Phillips screwdriver
Turn the Factor Frenzy™mat upside down on the tabletop. Using a
Phillips screwdriver, turn the screw on the battery door in a counter-
clockwise direction to loosen the screw. Remove the screw and open
the door. Insert the three AA batteries, being careful to match the +
and – ends of the batteries to the diagram inside the battery
compartment. Replace the battery compartment door and insert the
screw. Tighten the screw by using your Phillips screwdriver to turn the
screw in a clockwise direction until secure. Please read and understand
the other important battery usage instructions later in this manual.
Let’s Play!
Basic Play
Each of the three games is designed to help reinforce basic
multiplication or division skills in a fun and exciting format. Each game
begins with the unit of the game (main game unit) stating a math
problem in the form of a question. Players must know the answer and
be the first to "ring in" by hitting their player pad. The first player to
"ring in" will then have the chance to hit the correct number pads that
answer the question. If the first player answers incorrectly, then the
player that was second to “ring in”will have a chance to answer the
question. Points are given for each correct answer and subtracted for
each incorrect answer. The winner is the player with the most correct
answers. Points will be announced at the end of each round.
