<p>Each square in the top row hides a simple addition problem which you can view by clicking on it. The answer to the addition problem is hidden under one of the squares in the bottom two rows. There is no way to know under which square, you must simply guess. Move the cursor down to your selected guess, and notice that the bottom two rows are now &#8216;live&#8217;&#8211;each square is highlighted as you cross it.</p>
