Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Future updates for Arithmetic Arena will be shaped by real-time feedback on difficulty and pacing. Early Access allows us to collect authentic player impressions and gameplay data to fine-tune the game’s flow, challenge level, and overall clarity. By iterating publicly during Early Access, we can focus on what truly improves the experience.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“It will take roughly 6–12 months. There’s still a lot in the game that needs polishing and improvement.
This may end up taking more time.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We plan to deliver a more refined gaming experience and more precise difficulty adjustments in future updates, alongside iterative improvements to the interface, sound effects, and visual effects.
In addition, we intend to introduce ranked cooperative mode matchmaking and competitive mode matchmaking once the standard challenge mode achieves stable operation. Specific details and timelines will be dynamically adjusted based on player feedback.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The game is currently in an early stage of development. Sound effects and the user interface are still being refined. Planned features such as the upcoming competitive PvP mode, co-op challenge mode, and the Steam achievements system are still in development. However, one of the game’s core features—the ELO and leaderboard system—is already live. You can now enjoy the evolving challenge as your ELO rating changes and experience the excitement of climbing through the ranks.
Additionally, the current situation is that challenges at lower tiers are overly simplistic while those at higher tiers are excessively difficult. We will implement dynamic adjustments in future versions.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The core game will remain free to play.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We’ll be active on Steam Discussions and read every bug report and suggestion. We’ll share patch notes and a living roadmap, run occasional surveys/polls for tuning, and provide test branches for feedback before major updates. Clear communication and small, regular improvements are the plan.”

About This Game

Sharpen your mind, climb to the top of the ranks, and prove your skill on the global stage. In this arena, there is no luck—only skill.

Arithmetic Arena is a competitive math-challenge game built on the ELO ranking system. Each challenge tests not only your speed and accuracy, but also your ability to stay calm and composed. Confidence and composure will let you truly enjoy the game and find fun in every challenge.

  • ELO & Ranking System: Completing challenges changes your ELO score, which reflects your current skill level in real time. Rise from beginner all the way to Master and beyond. As you climb, the difficulty increases sharply—keeping your brain constantly challenged.

  • Global & Friend Leaderboards: Track your rank in real time, challenge your friends, and compete with players from all around the world.

  • Endless Challenge: Whether you want a quick test or a long grind through the ranks, the arena dynamically adjusts difficulty based on your performance, ensuring the experience stays rewarding.

  • Instant Action: The game is highly optimized, allowing you to load, enter, and start a challenge in the shortest time possible—while staying light on system resources when running in the background.

  • Standard Challenge Mode: When you choose to begin, you’ll receive a single challenge tailored to your current ELO rating. Once you submit your answer, your ELO score will be adjusted based on the result. You can decide when to start your next challenge at any time.

  • Multiplayer Competitive Mode (Coming Soon): Party up with friends or let matchmaking pair you with players of similar skill. You’ll be paired with players whose ELO ratings are close to yours, competing in 1v1 or 2v2 battles. Challenge difficulty is determined by the average ELO of both teams. When a player submits an answer, their team will instantly see the result. If the challenge fails, the victory goes to the opposing team. The first team to secure 15 wins claims overall victory.

  • Multiplayer Co-op Mode (Coming Soon): Team up with friends or queue solo to be matched with players of similar ELO ratings. Groups of 2–4 players will work together to complete 25 challenges based on the team’s average ELO. Once a player submits an answer, the result is shown immediately and the team moves on to the next challenge. Final ELO adjustments are calculated from both team performance and individual contributions.
