Build the skill.
Enjoy the challenge.

1. Create your account. Tap Create account. Use your email address (Gmail is fine) and a separate TimesBy12 password of at least 12 characters.
2. Make your player. Choose a gaming name, a creature, a colour and some gear. A nickname is perfect. If you already have a player on this phone, use Save my player to keep it with your account.
3. Pick up on any phone. Log in with the same email and TimesBy12 password, then choose your saved player. Your account keeps your avatar and learning progress online.

Already have an account? Tap Log in. Create another account only when you want a separate account, rather than to restore an existing player.

Stuck? Use a hint. It shows how the multiplication works. A hinted round still helps you learn, but does not count towards the Parent Challenge reward.

1. Prepare the phone once while online. Open TimesBy12 in the installed app or browser, log in and choose the player. Wait for Offline ready on the Play screen, then open Offline practice.
2. Choose your saved player and practise anywhere. Mixed quests, specific tables, visual hints, power plays, 25-question practice quests and Parent Challenge target practice work without internet. Your challenge progress appears on the phone and is confirmed when it syncs. Answers save on this phone before the counter moves. Use Finish later · save quest to take a break.
3. Reconnect and open TimesBy12. Android Chrome can also retry in the background when supported. Leave the game open briefly to confirm the saved items waiting to sync count falls to zero. You can also tap Sync now in Offline practice. If your login has expired, log in to the same account online; the queue stays saved.
4. Keep the original practice days. Sync sends the answers with their recorded dates. The server checks scores, XP, streaks and parent-mission evidence. Repeated sync attempts do not award duplicate XP.

Offline practice is a separate practice screen. A quest started in the online game stays saved there; start or resume an offline quest in Offline practice. Use the same website address or installed app where you prepared the player. Data saved on one address does not move to another until it has synced.

Battles, new logins, avatar changes and parent actions need internet. Family approvals and reward payments can be recorded after reconnecting. Walkthrough videos are not downloaded for offline viewing. Keep the phone’s browser/app data until pending progress has synced. The first use on a new phone needs internet.

1. One player creates a battle. Tap Friends battle for up to 10 players or Create classroom battle for up to 35 players, then share the invitation link or the 6-character room code privately. The 35 places can include 33 pupils and two teachers playing together.
2. Up to 9 other players join a friends battle, or up to 34 join a classroom battle. Open the link, or tap Join a battle and enter the room code. Each player uses their own player on their own phone or laptop. A saved account is optional for playing, and keeps progress across devices.
3. The host starts the match. In friends and classroom battles, the host chooses whether power play is on for everyone (+20 correct, −10 for a miss) or off (+10 correct, no loss for a miss). Hints still score +5 and speed bonuses still apply. The host can change the setting before starting a rematch. When everyone invited has joined, the host starts the battle with 2–10 players in friends mode or 2–35 in classroom mode. Everyone starts with the same set of 25 questions and has up to 3 minutes. Answers move straight on to the next question. A missed fact returns later for that player when an unanswered slot is available, replacing another question. Players can therefore see different questions after mistakes. A miss on question 25 cannot return within that battle, but is remembered for later practice. A live leaderboard shows the scores. When everyone finishes or time runs out, the podium reveals bronze, silver and gold before the final leaderboard. If scores are tied, the quickest player to complete all 25 ranks higher. Exactly equal finish times share a place. Players who do not finish all 25 rank behind a finisher with the same score. The winner celebrates with a trophy. Tap Replay celebration to watch the ceremony again. After everyone finishes, only the host can tap Create a rematch; the other players tap Join rematch on their results. The same room code works again, and the rematch host waits for everyone before starting. The final top ten shows scores; the separate Battle winners board counts each player’s wins across the room and its rematches and records each winner today, with earlier days available too. Find the latest room again under High scores → Open battle winners. A new room starts a new competition. Finish all 25 questions within 120 seconds of the battle starting to earn 25 bonus points, even if some answers are wrong.

Accuracy earns the main points. Quick, correct answers without hints can earn extra points and XP. You can still play one against one. In an ordinary friends or classroom battle the host occupies one place. In Teacher: Class of the Week the teacher watches separately, leaving all 35 player places available. Friends must join before the host starts; an unused room invitation expires after 2 hours.

Your quest score never drops below zero. A hint turns off the power-play option for that question.

50 kr is the weekly maximum. Rewards need a parent’s agreement and an approved family connection. Your parent pays separately; the app records it once. Record it after the last round you want to include, or wait until the week ends and use the previous-week option.

Open Challenge → My challenge to see your next goal. Mastery ranks recognise remembered skills separately from money. Tap Train my next targets to work on facts needed for your next rank; those target quests are not 25-question reward rounds.

1. Use your own parent account. In the game, open Challenge → Parent corner. Enter your TimesBy12 password and choose Create my family challenge.
2. Share the private family code. Each child logs into their own account, chooses their player and enters the code under Challenge → My challenge → Join your family challenge. Then they tap Ask to join.
3. Approve their gaming names. Back in Parent corner, refresh the challenge, enter your parent password and approve each child’s request.
4. Review the week together. Check their five perfect days, total perfect rounds, reliable facts and mastered facts. Give the agreed reward separately, then choose Mark this week as paid to keep a record. One payment can be recorded per child, per week; you can wait until the week ends and record the previous week.

The family code is different from a battle room code. Keep the parent account separate from the children’s accounts. Parent actions require your password.
