Nintendo launches Make 10: A Journey of Numbers website

Nintendo has launched a website for its upcoming mathematical puzzle game Make 10: A Journey of Numbers, which gives a full run-down of how the game works.

The number-crunching game - as you might have guessed - is all about making the number ten from a series of given numbers. It's not quite as dull as it sounds though, and features 30 different exercises all taking place in the magical Make 10 Kingdom.

There's even a storyline to the game. After falling asleep reading a picture book of numbers, you're awoken by the Make 10 pixie, Num Diddly. He then takes you around his kingdom, providing tips on solving puzzles and - every now and again - asking you to take part in bonus games, which allow you to advance further in the game.

The whole kingdom is interactive, with touching signs and scenery with the DS stylus often revealing new games and unblocking paths. There are also creatures scattered around the place, who - when touched in the right order - increase your 'Make 10 power'. You can also keep your pixie friends happy by feeding them treats - then they'll give you even more advice.

Numerous game modes test your memory, reasoning skills and speed of response, and give feedback on your performances. You can also play the Make 10 games against your friends using DS Download Play.

You can find out even more over at the website if all that's got the interest of your inner maths boffin. Make 10 is due for release across Europe on September 26th.
