Favorite Coolmath Games: Clicker Heroes, Block the Pig, Tube Master
Jon is a strategy game fanatic - his favorite games are open-ended puzzles with strategic, complex systems and creative solutions. He loves that games allow anyone to share in unique experiences, like designing a subway system in Mini Metro: London or building a civilization in Pre-Civilization Bronze Age. He has been helping discover and design games that make you think for Coolmath since 2014.
In his free time, Jon enjoys biking, playing board games, card games, Nintendo, Xbox and PC games. In past lives he has helped design board games and card games, including the Chaotic Trading Card Game and the Twilight movie (yes, that Twilight) board game series.
Jon is a graduate of NYU’s Stern School of Business and is deeply passionate about using games as a way to help people think, learn, and grow. His accomplishments in the web gaming space have given him opportunities to share his insights as a speaker and panelist at industry events such as GDC, Gamescom and Pocket Gamer Connects.
Games Reviewed By Jonathan Keefer
Fireworks
December 31, 1998Sets of balls drop down from the top like Tetris. You get to switch up their order before they drop (if you can) so that you get rows of three of the same color.
Number Balls
December 31, 1998This is a pretty simple game. You just click on the balls following the numbers on them from lowest to highest.
Duck Life
December 31, 1998Train your duck to get faster so he can win races and save the farm. Use math to help him succeed. Teach him how to swim and fly too.
Three Bags
December 31, 1998Either I just haven't figured this one out yet, or I'm missing something. There must be a logic trick here. Can you figure it out?
Fraction Splat
December 31, 1998Sounds easy... Just click on the right type of fraction and make it go "SPLAT. " The trick is catching them!
Tower of Hanoi
December 31, 1998Stack the disks in the proper order! Create colorful towers by stacking the disks from smallest to largest based on the color.
Water Jars
December 31, 1998This is an old standard when it comes to logic puzzles. You've got two jars and need to use them to figure out another amount of water.
Venture: Capital
December 31, 1998How well do you know your US state capitals? This game gives you three ways to test yourself: choose it, spell it and locate it!
Lizard Row Slide
December 31, 1998I like this one because it's easier than those nearly impossible "slider" games. With this one, you can deal with one row at a time. I can actually solve this one!
Pattern Memory
December 31, 1998The computer briefly shows you a pattern on the board... Then, it disappears and you have to reproduce it.
