Numbers that mean something
247 is not just a numeral—it is 247 noodles in the pot, made from 2 hundreds, 4 tens, and 7 ones. The three-rod soroban becomes three mixing bowls.
Run a diner for eight hungry monsters while practising three-digit numbers, two- and three-digit three-row sums, and one-digit signed mental flashes on a three-rod soroban.
Every monster is available without an account. Progress is saved on this device.
Each customer orders a silly dish that is really an abacus task: make a three-digit number, read the pot, mix a three-bowl recipe, or catch a number whisper. Solve the order and the monster gobbles it up with a happy wiggle.

Springy beads, silly sound effects, goofy monster reviews, and a very satisfying burp button keep children coming back to the same Level 2 skills.
Level names differ between abacus programs, so Bead Beast Bistro describes its arithmetic precisely instead of promising certification or affiliation.

Gronk, Chompzilla, Slurps and friends react to every answer with silly sound effects.
Finish a shift to unlock each monster's celebration—including a press-for-a-burp button.
