Addition
Donnie Jr counts the extra steel Roman shields left in the locker room. Adding up the piles gives us our first big clue.
Solve each problem to learn its letter. Then write that letter in every box that shows the same number, and read the secret clue.
Fractions of a number
We find a broken hockey stick. Only a fraction of its total length remains, helping us calculate where the culprit fled.
Solve each problem to learn its letter. Then write that letter in every box that shows the same number, and read the secret clue.
Order of operations
To reboot the arena computer, we must enter the override codes in the exact order of operations.
Solve each problem to learn its letter. Then write that letter in every box that shows the same number, and read the secret clue.
Multiplication facts (1-12)
The team counts the rows of giant spare hockey pucks stacked near the Godzilla statue to find the suspect.
Solve each problem to learn its letter. Then write that letter in every box that shows the same number, and read the secret clue.
Division facts (1-12) — the last clue
We must divide the remaining energy cells equally among the active goalie mechs to crack the final code.
First solve each problem. Then find each answer in the list below and cross that sentence out. One sentence will be left — that's exactly what the villain did!
