Exponent Engine: Exponents Game for Grades 6‑8
Chain power gears together with the laws of exponents and scientific notation.
Build a power chain, one gear at a time. Each gear multiplies, divides or raises the glowing core, and you pick the new power before the engine overloads. Three levels run from grade 6 whole-number exponents, through the integer exponent laws, to scientific notation in grade 8.

What kids practise
Exponent Engine gives students repeated, low-pressure practice with exponents, powers, laws of exponents, negative exponents, and scientific notation. It is written for grades 6-8, with levels that let younger and older players start at the right difficulty. Every question is generated fresh, so a replay is never the same, and a wrong answer shows the correct one so the round teaches as well as tests.
