Video Game Based on Divisibility of Numbers

Abstract

A game in which a player is scored on their ability to perform mathematical operations on a number, changing the value of the number so that it is divisible by another number. Players can be tested on their ability to perform accurate calculations, and quick calculations. Additionally, the game will test strategic thinking of players as they attempt to earn the best possible score or time.

1 . A game wherein a player is scored on their ability to change a number x so that it is divisible by or equal to a number z. 
     
     
         2 . The method of  claim 1  wherein a player is given a score based upon their ability to perform, on a number x, mathematical operations using a number y, such that the new value of x is divisible by a number z. 
     
     
         3 . The method of  claim 1  wherein a player is timed as they perform mathematical operations on a number x, using a number y, such that the new value of x is divisible by a number z. 
     
     
         4 . The method of  claim 1  wherein a player is given a score based upon the number of mathematical operations they perform using a number y, on a number x, such that the new value of x is divisible by a number z. 
     
     
         5 . The method of  claim 1  wherein the player plays for their own best score. 
     
     
         6 . The method of  claim 1  wherein the player plays against a best possible score. 
     
     
         7 . The method of  claim 1  wherein the player plays against a score required to win the game. 
     
     
         8 . The method of  claim 1  wherein the player plays for their own best time. 
     
     
         9 . The method of  claim 1  wherein the player plays against a time required to win the game. 
     
     
         10 . The method of  claim 2  wherein the number y can have several possible values within one game. 
     
     
         11 . The method of  claim 3  wherein the number y can have several possible values within one game. 
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 4  wherein the number y can have several possible values within one game. 
     
     
         13 . The method of  claim 2  wherein multiple players compete for the best score. 
     
     
         14 . The method of  claim 3  wherein multiple players compete for the best time. 
     
     
         15 . The method of  claim 4  wherein multiple players compete for the fewest mathematical operations performed. 
     
     
         16 . The method of  claim 1  wherein a player is scored in an aggregate system based upon any combination of the metrics in the set of score, time, and number of mathematical operations performed. 
     
     
         17 . The method of  claim 1  wherein multiple players compete in an aggregate scoring system based upon any combination of the metrics in the set of score, time, and number of mathematical operations performed.
