Hello all,
Matt mentions in this CNN video interview that a falling numbers game is the favorite of kids during desktop demonstrations. Any ideas what math game he's talking about? Pretty sure it's free software. Thanks for your help.

Thanks Tom, that seems to be it. The youngsters love that game!

"Endless says its operating system “is is not meant to be jailbroken and altered,” but the open source components are accessible via Github, but the Endless app store and some other apps are proprietary."
so its not a free system there running on it
but aparently you can change the operating system on the machine according to this post they made:
They use Gnome, yet claim to have created their own OS. At least we have the decency to admit our OS started as gNewSense and was updated by adding adding backported GNU-Linux-Libre software.
I liked the concept of low-cost PCs that can be used without an internet connection for learning, so we're putting together desktops with ethernet only (no wifi) for home, office, and education centers.
He doesn't claim that it's a math game, just that it consists of "numbers falling from the sky". I don't think that sounds like Tux Math; Tux Math can be played like that, but usually it's math problems falling from the... well, void of space.
I can't think of any libre games he could be talking about that would make more sense. It wouldn't surprise me if it's actually a proprietary software game.
