Rockets 2
A modern tribute to Rockets, the maths game Graeme wrote with his son Chris in 1995. Shoot the rockets down by typing the answers before they reach the top.

How to play
- Each rocket carries a sum. Type the answer and the laser fires as soon as it matches – or press Enter (or Fire on a phone).
- Ten hearts, as in 1995: you lose one each time a rocket reaches the red line at the top.
- Every 10 right answers the speed goes up. Answer quickly, and keep a streak going, for more points.
- Hexadecimal answers use 0–9 and A–F, without leading zeros. Binary answers use 0 and 1 and include all their bits, leading zeros too – 0011 AND 0110 = 0010.
- Reach speed 10 and you win – but it doesn’t stop there. Past 10 it keeps getting faster, with more rockets at once, for as long as you can last.
- Press Esc or P to pause. Your best scores are remembered on this device.
Rockets 2 was made in 2026 as a tribute. The original is still here to play:Rockets (1995).
