About this game

Times Table Blaster is a fast, friendly multiplication arcade game. You pilot Multiply One along bright skyway districts filled with floating answer capsules.

Build combos, charge power-ups, clear wave districts, and unlock nonviolent boss gates. Choose table ranges, mission length, and Pointer, Keyboard, or Auto-Aim controls.

Controls: keyboard-touch. Scores are verified before appearing on the public leaderboard. Read how scoring works.

• Use Auto-Aim when precise pointer aiming is difficult.

• Hard uses tables 1–12, five capsules, crossing paths, missing factors, product-pair challenges, and tighter windows.
