It’s time to dive for treasure! In this interactive digital game, students collect treasure from the bottom of the ocean floor by reading analogue clocks and matching them to the correct digital o’clock times. Each correct answer earns a piece of treasure - with each piece worth a different number of points.

This version of the game focuses exclusively on telling o’clock times (:00). Students will practise reading analogue clocks and selecting the matching digital time. The game supports fluency with both clock types and builds early time-telling confidence through engaging, points-based play.

The more correct answers they give, the more treasure they collect! At the end of the game, the player with the most points wins the treasure hunt!
