Superheroes Math Challenge has a learning mode that teaches the following math concepts: order of operations, parentheses, powers, square roots, and negative numbers. When the player feels comfortable with the concepts, it is time to choose one of the three heroes to take flying. The player can select a forest, cityscape, or mountains to fly over. During the side-scrolling flight, the game presents the player with a formula at the bottom of the screen. In addition to various other obstacles in the air, 4 answers will come floating along. The player must navigate the hero to touch the correct answer.
