Yes PLYT can be played by 2 - 6 players.
There is no defined Standard for each age.
The Standard is different for different levels of ability, so you could have one player simply rolling the Master Dice, recognising the numbers and counting round the board, a second may have a Standard of 3 adding - so they roll & add three dice (including the Master Dice), a third player may have a Standard of Fixed Dice on 2 - fixing the red dice on 2 and rolling the Master Dice to practise their 2 times tables and a fourth on a Standard of 4 dice multiplying - so they roll and multiply 4 dice.
The correct standard for each person is one where they get many of their calculations correct but it can still be a challenge.
The aim is then to encourage players to push themselves out of their comfort zone - by offering the bonus for an extra dice thrown - and hence they keep improving. Once they are going for a bonus every time on their turn and getting many correct, change that to their new standard and encourage them to try another dice.
The aim is to keep improving and you will see confidence grow as players start to challenge themselves.

The simple answer is No!
Children love to play & try to beat their parents and they love to see them finding it a challenge - the research showed that where parents challenged themselves (and importantly showed children that it was ok to get some answers wrong - as that is how we learn), the children also challenged themselves more and the biggest improvements were made.
The research also proved that both children and adults improve by playing PLYT so you can improve your maths as you play too.

We know how hard it is to get a game launched and we’ll do whatever we can to help. Talkplaces Ltd is always willing to listen to great ideas for board games provided they are in keeping with the values of the company which requires that they are fun, competitive, have a positive value (such as educational) and are great for families and groups. Any ideas that are sent to us will not be passed to any other party, however we cannot guarantee that other companies or Talkplaces Ltd are not working on a game that might be very similar to the proposal you send us. As a result, if you do send us any proposals, you do so on the understanding that we are not responsible or liable for any future issues that may arise should a similar idea appear on the market either by Talkplaces Ltd or another company. You send us your ideas entirely at your own risk and we wish you every success with your idea.
Unfortunately we only keep a very limited stock of some of the parts. We’re happy to try to help where we can, but we cannot always guarantee being able to deliver spare parts to you quickly.
