Description
This is a bundle of pen-and-paper games based on the (somewhat well-known) Game of Sim.
The first page explains how that game works, which is a great introduction to these types of games and usually adored by young Apprentices. It’s a two-player game where, every turn, you simply draw a line between two points (that don’t have a line yet). The first one who is forced to create a triangle this way loses.
Then, however, we take that idea in interesting directions by applying it to other basic shapes. And, when needed, by twisting the rules to challenge the players even more.
These games are simple. Most of them just have you draw a single line from point A to point B on your turn, until some condition is met. But with every attempt, you discover a better first move, a deeper strategy, a new way to look at the shape and its connections.

Subject: Mathematics
The curriculum is split into six main subjects that align with your typical school subjects.
This resource is part of the Mathematics subject. Below is a summary:
This subject teaches Mathematics from first principles to calculus. Level 1 explores the basic skills needed before you do any counting or see any numbers (such as grouping and comparing objects). Level 2(+) can then introduce numbers, counting, addition, multiplication, and more.
Faction: Gamiverses
This resource is part of the Gamiverses Faction.
But that's just one way to teach and explore its topic(s)!
You can always move to a different Faction to find a more effective way to teach the same topic.
Played a quiz? Try a game! Played a game? Try an escape room! And so on.

Spell: My First Shapes
This resource is part of the My First Shapes topic (or "spell").
Just like colors, shapes provide an easy way to categorize the world around us and break it into smaller parts. This helps understand the world better: now you can explicitly ask your parents for the square thing, for example. It also enables teaching crucial skills such as grouping and combining later.
