"Level 1 is too easy for some classes and yet level 2 is too difficult. There needs to be an easier level 2." 8 set 2, Verdin High School Cheshire
"Dear 8 set 2. Thanks very much for your feedback. On your suggestion the three level scale has now been changed to five levels. The new levels 2 and 3 fit between the old levels 1 and 2 in terms of difficulty. Transum,
"How do I change the levels?" Margaret,
"Click on the links underneath the answers below." Transum,
"This is a fantastic starter as it works their brains at the start of the lesson while I take the register! I've used it a great deal with classes of varying abilities. They ring the values they fill in and I record their scores. We monitor it over a few lessons to see if they have improved or maintained a good accuracy and award house points" Miss Reakes, The English College Dubai

Having said that, the grids are generated by random numbers so there is a chance that a grid comprising of larger numbers is actually easier to solve. Refreshing the page will repopulate the grid with different numbers at the same level.
The numbers at the heads of the rows and columns are randomly generated so that they are:
Level 1: Up to 10
Level 2: Up to 20
Level 3: Up to 50
Level 4: Up to 100
Level 5: Up to 1000"
