Math Card Battle

Wins: 0

Losses: 0

Rules

Objective: Win battles by strategically choosing your cards.
Setup: You get three cards, each with a type (✊Rock, ✌️Scissors, or ✋Paper) and a value (1-9). The enemy has a flipping card with two faces, each with its own type and value.
Gameplay:
- Choose one of your cards to play.
- Click "Battle!" to compare your card against the *currently visible* face of the enemy's flipping card.
- Winning a Round:
  - Both type and numerical value are compared simultaneously for each card comparison. The total points earned from both criteria are added together for the round.
  - If your card's type beats the opponent's card type (rock beats scissors, scissors beats paper, paper beats rock), you score 1 point.
  - If your card's numerical value is higher than the opponent's card's numerical value, you score 1 point.
  - If the types are the same, the card with the higher value wins.
  - If both type and value are the same, it's a tie, and nobody lose.
Difficulty: The enemy card flips faster as you win more rounds.
Game Over: The game continues until you decide to stop. Keep track of your wins and losses!

Beyond the Game (for Parents and Kids):

This game isn't just about Rock, Paper, Scissors! It's about:

Number Recognition: Kids practice recognizing numbers 1-9.
Strategic Thinking: Choosing the right card involves planning and anticipating.
Probability (Advanced): Older kids can start thinking about the probability of each enemy card face appearing.
Adaptability: The increasing speed challenges players to react faster.
Mental Math: Quickly comparing values strengthens mental math skills.
Dealing with Loss: It's okay to lose! Learning to handle setbacks is an important life skill.
Observation Skills: Paying close attention to the flipping card helps you predict the best time to play. You are playing a game with incomplete information.
Risk Assessment: Since the enemy card flips, you have to decide how much risk you're willing to take. Should you play your best card now, or wait for a potentially better opportunity?

Tips for Winning:

Pay attention to the pattern of the flipping enemy card to try to predict which side will be showing.
If you have a high-value card, consider using it when you're confident about the enemy card's type.
Don't be afraid to use a lower-value card if it has the type advantage.
