Multitask effortlessly on your PC or Mac as you try out Abacus Master -addition and subtraction-, a Education app by Hirokuma.App on BlueStacks.
So, Abacus Master – addition and subtraction – is this chill little app where you use a digital abacus (like the classic kind from Japan, called a Soroban) to practice math. It’s basically about getting good at adding and subtracting numbers, but instead of typing on a calculator, you’re sliding these virtual beads around. There’s something different about it compared to just punching numbers into a phone — it sort of makes you think differently about the math you’re doing. Like, you actually see the numbers in a physical kind of way, which is pretty neat, especially if you’re someone who learns best by doing things hands-on.
A lot of people wonder if using an abacus in an app is even useful now, since everyone’s got phones with calculators. But the cool thing about playing around with this is it actually gets your brain working without needing to rely on pressing “=” for answers. After a bit of practice, kids and adults start to picture the numbers and moves in their mind, and get faster at doing math without needing a device at all. Running it on something bigger like BlueStacks on a PC gives you more space to work with, which makes the beads easier to see and move. The whole thing is simple, but there’s a nice bit of satisfaction when you get the hang of it and start solving stuff quick. It’s not flashy or anything, but it makes practicing math a bit more engaging than just staring at worksheets or doing drills. For anyone that’s curious about learning mental math skills in a fresh way, it kind of scratches that itch without being overwhelming.
Switch to BlueStacks and make the most of your apps on your PC or Mac.
