This is a math game designed for kids in kindergarten classes and below. It uses five minigames to teach them number recognition, number sequencing, number comparisons, and addition/subtraction. Kids earn rewards and unlock the next mini-game by completing a round in the current game. Completing at least eight rounds in each mini-game earns them the key to the city, where they can also interact with other objects.

What Users Love About the App

“Love this app, great basic concepts to number order, counting, subtracting, and number recognition (even numbers higher then 20). My 4 1/2 year old loves it. Each time my child completes a game he gets a badge for his collection.”

“This is one of the better apps we have purchased. I think it is worth every dollar. I find that if I play the games with my child now and then it helps them understand some of the concepts better. However a child can easily play this on their own.’

“I am a professor in educational technology specializing in games and this has to be one of the best games I have ever come across. It starts out with simple ideas and builds on them step by step.”

“Great app! This is a great app for kids learning their numbers! So much fun!”

What Users Dislike About the App

“The games themselves have merit, but the emphasis placed on “good job” and winning badges (why does every effort require a reward?) detracts from the learning and experience, in my opinion.”

“When it finally downloaded I turned my daughter loose. For her age she’s pretty adept at firing up games and getting around in them. With this she would often get stuck and frustrated and come to me.”

“It took my kid awhile to navigate and would often end up at a screen trying to sell her something. Yeah, more to buy after already dropping $7. I started to cringe if I heard her playing somewhere and opening up the app.”

“We had no more access one day it just disappeared. Not sure what happened but fix the issue as it is all blocked out.”

“Ads in $6.99 app – Say it ain’t so. I am thoroughly disgusted and wish I’d never deleted and reinstalled. On second thought, I am sorry I ever purchased it in the first place. Shame on you.”
