Game Structure

Round 1: Harmonic Maths

  • Objective: Solve a series of complex mathematical operations delivered through audio.
  • Format:
    • 10 fastest and accurate champions advance to the next round.
    • Remaining participants face a "Death Match" to determine who stays in the competition.
  • Challenges:
    • Mental calculations without any tools.
    • Operations include positive/negative numbers, fractions, exponents, and roots.

Round 2: Space Fold

  • Objective: Test memory and spatial skills through memorizing cube nets.
  • Format:
    • Divided into two phases: Memorization and Solving.
    • Champions must memorize designs and answer questions based on their memorization.
    • 10 fastest champions with correct answers advance; others enter Death Match.

Death Match

  • Purpose: Last chance for eliminated participants to stay in the competition.
  • Format: Participants compete in a final challenge to determine who continues.

Key Insights and Conclusions

  • Competitiveness: The event showcases high-achieving students, many of whom have won international awards, creating a highly competitive environment.
  • Skill Diversity: Challenges are designed to test various skills, including mathematics, memory, and spatial reasoning, ensuring a comprehensive assessment of participants' abilities.
