Kahoot! is a live quiz-show platform for classrooms, teams and events — anyone can host a game on any subject, and players join a session with a PIN. It's free to join and free to host small basic games; personal hosting plans run roughly $3 to $35 a month for more participants and features. Math Games is the opposite shape: a solo practice tool, open any time, with four math-specific games and your own progress tracked over time.
| Jeux Maths | Kahoot! | |
|---|---|---|
| Does it come with math questions built in | Yes — that's the entire product | No — someone has to write or find a math quiz first |
| Can you play it right now, alone | Yes, that's the normal way to use it | No — you need a host, a group, and a PIN, live |
| What happens to a session afterward | Doesn't apply — there's no session, just you playing | It ends. There's no replaying that exact quiz solo later |
| Free tier limit | No limit on anything | Kahoot! Go — up to 10 participants, hosting or joining |
| Cost to go past that limit | Nothing — there's no limit to go past | Kahoot+ personal plans, roughly $3–35/month |
| A running record with one specific friend | Yes — same questions, a persistent score between you two | No — group sessions aren't built around one rival |

This is the one on this list that isn't built around math at all — Kahoot! is a blank quiz-hosting tool for any subject, and someone (a teacher, you, a stranger online) has to write or find the actual math questions before anyone can play. Compared here mostly because "math kahoot" is one of the most common ways people search for a game like this one.
Math Games starts with the questions already built, generated fresh every round, at four difficulty tiers. There's nothing to author and nothing to find — open a mode and the math is already there.
Kahoot!'s entire mechanic requires a live host and a group joining in real time with a PIN. There's no solo mode for practising alone on your commute or during a coffee break — the free Go tier tops out at 10 participants in a session, and going further costs $3 to $35 a month depending on the tier.
Math Games needs exactly one person: you, whenever you open it. No PIN, no waiting for a host to start the game, and nothing that stops working once a session ends — because there's no session, just a game you can play again immediately.
