EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: This study aimed to develop TempleMath: Android Based Brain Teaser Gaming App for Junior High School of Pantay National High School Teresa, Rizal during Academic Year 2018-2019. The program was designed and created using Unity Game Engine as program language and Adobe Photoshop CS6 for editing. The respondents of the study were five (5) Mathematics teachers and eighty (80) Junior High School students of Pantay National High School who were selected through purposive random sampling techniques. The study used the descriptive type of research to determine and analyse the difference between the levels of acceptability of the two groups of respondents. The researchers used an adapted modified questionnaire checklist which served as the main instrument to answer the objectives set for the study. The researchers used the weighted mean to determine the level of acceptability of the program developed. A general weighted mean of 4.43 from the Mathematics teachers while for the Junior High School students, it is 4.61 as revealed by the respondents.
