About the game
Get ready for a race where speed isn't just on the track, but also in your hands and your head! Pit Formula puts you in charge of a super agile pit crew, who need to fix race cars in the blink of an eye. Forget the image of slow mechanics; here, the work is frantic and demands maximum concentration and quick thinking. Each stage of the race presents a series of car components that need repairs, and each repair is a different mathematical challenge: addition, subtraction, multiplication, or a numerical interval. All players tackle these challenges simultaneously, searching for the correct answers among the tokens scattered across the table. The goal is to be the fastest and most accurate to resolve your car's pit stop issues and secure victory in the race. It's a game that will test your mental agility and your ability to handle pressure, all within a Formula 1 racing environment! (Note: This Pit Formula by BGC Editora is not the same game as Pit Crew by Geoff Engelstein, released in the same year by Stronghold Games.)
