Triolet is an outstanding test of mental arithmetic - without appearing to be so.

Successful play demands constant calculation of varied scoring possibilities. The best tactics mean that players must look for opportunities in two dimensions, so there is a keen element of observation and strategy, as well as simple arithmetic.

The game helps develop skills in number bonds and manipulating numbers in a non threatening atmosphere; making numbers fun. Plus, the game is extremely simple to learn, but very varied in scoring opportunities, demanding constant attention and evaluation if you are to find the highest scores.
