Glad I'm a Psych major. Rating based on the math itself.

IWBT Math Major is a special game made by one of the most recognizable figures in the fangame community in TJ. He himself is quite the math whiz and you can definitely understand why he'd make a game like this. In terms of the gameplay, you as the player are tasked with completing 8 "stages" (40 questions) of math that progressively get harder and harder with each passing stage. Stage 1 eases the player into the game by asking you to solve introductory problems most elementary students should be able to solve. As you pass through each stage, the question difficulty gets slightly tougher until you're tasked with completing secondary to graduate level problems that you won't see until your senior year in high school/undergraduate or graduate level courses in college. Once you reach stage 5 or 6, some players will probably hit a wall and require some sort of assistance. In fact, I would advise some sort of help since these problems get very difficult. Treat it like an actual math test; it'll teach you something new and help with some concepts you might've forgotten.

Personally, I started to have real trouble around the Calculus/Higher level probability questions. In general, I consider myself a good student, but only after high school. Before college, I was very bad when it came to studying, yet I managed to survive all of my classes with A's and B's. However, I am terrible at retaining information so I tend to forget most concepts over the summer. For Calculus, I retained little to none of the information I learned during my senior year in high school and would like to take another class in college if I can. For probability, I have no experience whatsoever when it comes to the subject so I had no idea what to do or where to start.

Nevertheless, this game helped me remember and learn plenty of conceptual and general concepts regarding higher level math. I never really regarded myself as a great mathematician, but like most things, give me enough time and I'll damn near master it. For the people who have mastered it, I commend you for mastering such a difficult and comprehensive subject. I have a newfound respect for those who take this career path.

Would I recommend this game? I do think if you're into math, you should check this game out. While it was frustrating not knowing how to do some of the higher level questions, some patience, and a open and studious attitude will help to make the game a bit more fun. Again, you might end up learning something like I did. If you're like some people and wish math's utter demise and destruction, you probably wouldn't enjoy this game. All in all, you'd be better off playing something else, but do give it a shot if you're genuinely curious or want to learn something new.


Aesthetics:

Looks nice. Great song picks. Would've like something more mellow but I wasn't annoyed by the music. Still enjoyed it.
