What are cZeus Puzzles?

cZeus Puzzles are unique, grid-based maths challenges boosting numeracy, logic, and problem-solving. They simplify complex mathematical relationships (like simultaneous non-linear algebraic equations) into a grid format. Players find unknown "Mystery Numbers" using given clues (sums/products) and four puzzle rules, without formal algebra. Key rules: unknown numbers are whole numbers from 1-9 (can repeat), and each puzzle has only one solution. More rules are introduced in the cZeus Planet and the cZeus School League.

Testimonials

Emeritus Professor of Mathematics, Stirling University.

Professor Jon Greenman

Jon Greenman, a retired Maths Professor at Stirling University has spent a career convincing students that mathematics is to be enjoyed and not feared, “This task has been made easier, not only for students but also for those who want to keep their brain in trim, by the recent development of a range of computer games that test numerical agility. A recent addition to this market is cZeus which takes the concept much further by introducing players to more complex concepts without them realising it. cZeus is a thoroughly absorbing game based on a smart idea and has the potential to take the player further along the path to a deeper appreciation and enjoyment of mathematics.”

As an experienced educator, I highly recommend CZeus as an outstanding resource for teachers, tutors, and parents. It’s a powerful yet easy-to-use platform that enhances student learning and engagement through a range of tools for lesson planning, progress tracking, and personalized instruction. The CZeus puzzles are particularly impressive. They offer a fun, interactive way for pupils to build confidence in maths and logical thinking while developing key skills such as arithmetic, pattern recognition, and reasoning. Beyond practising maths, the puzzles nurture computational thinking—a vital foundation for problem-solving and coding—by encouraging pupils to break down problems, spot patterns, and apply logical reasoning. The gradual increase in difficulty promotes resilience and a growth mindset, making learning both meaningful and enjoyable. Whether used in lessons, homework, maths clubs, or as extension work, CZeus provides a flexible and engaging way to make maths accessible for all learners. It’s a resource I genuinely value and would recommend to any educator or parent looking to inspire confidence and curiosity in young mathematicians.

cZeus puzzles offer a great alternative way for practising basic numeracy skills as well learning more complicated mathematical concepts such as algebra and basic number theory. cZeus does this in a fun way and without the players knowing the underlying maths. All the players need is some basic knowledge of arithmetic and logical reasoning to start solving simpler cZeus Mortal and Hero puzzles, and with practice they can gradually improve their numeracy and reasoning skills as well as their mental agility to solve harder puzzles. Solving a puzzle essentially amounts to solving a set of simultaneous algebraic equations.

This is a great way to get the interest of a wider range of people with no formal mathematical training in such an important discipline. cZeus is more powerful than other brain training games as it teaches a real life skill and has the potential to play an important role in changing the cultural attitudes towards maths education in general. Similar to Sudoku, I am confident cZeus will become a ubiquitous maths and logic game encouraging more people to improve their numeracy skills. I highly recommend cZeus to anyone from beginners to those who are advanced in maths proficiency and would like to keep an agile mind.
