Videocart-6 is a math game that focuses on addition and subtraction. The game presents a series of problems to solve, and you need to use the controller to enter the correct answer, earning you a point. If you enter an incorrect answer, you are given a second chance. Answer incorrectly a second time, and a point is given to the computer, which will also show you how to solve the problem.
The game features a single mode of play, but the instruction manual includes suggestions for games that can be played with two or more players. These ideas include:
Mathematical Chairs: Two players take turns seeing who can answer the most problems in a row.
Hang Math: A variation of hang man. For each incorrect answer, you draw a part of the body. Too many wrong answers, and your character is hung.
Up to 1000: Answer problems correctly to add the value to your score. Try to end up with 1000 points without going over.
Videocart-6 was released in 1970 for the Fairchild Channel F console, and its educational genre makes it suitable for adults looking for a nostalgic gaming experience.
