### 3/5 — Eh.

*2025-06-25, version 1.3.1*

I understand it would still take work to code this game but it is boring.

### 4/5 — It is good

*2025-03-13, version 1.3.1*

I love this game, it reminds me of nitro type but instead of typing it is math. I like getting trophies 🏆 The only is that it doesn’t teach you much. You opponent is so slow u could definitely win. So I would suggest making the opponent faster pls but everything else is good 😊

### 4/5 — The game

*2024-09-12, version 1.3.1*

My son has had so much Fun with this maths game that he hasn’t stayed of it.

### 3/5 — This is a little good

*2023-04-26, version 1.3.1*

Its good for education for math but its not fair to play for kids

### 2/5 — Terrible

*2023-02-01, version 1.3.1*

It’s so annoying when you lose 😒😔

### 2/5 — Too unfair

*2022-07-29, version 1.3.1*

Every time You hang around the finish line the red car always wins

### 3/5 — Good Game

*2022-04-07, version 1.3.1*

It was a bit boring and dull but I think it should have a bit more variety of times table games. Open

### 4/5 — Good just need to learn more

*2022-03-25, version 1.3.1*

It’s rally good for learning your times tables because you make it fun but I feel like when you get one question wrong you lose and your supposed to be learning them but it’s just like one question you lose

### 3/5 — Nice

*2021-07-17, version 1.3.1*

It’s good l like it but I don’t like studying

### 3/5 — Time

*2021-03-24, version 1.3.1*

This is a great game but I’m sorry to say, when your racing a person, it needs more time so you can press on the times table,
Please fix it I’m getting a nerve up my sleeve.

### 2/5 — There is Hackers!

*2021-03-20, version 1.3.1*

I like this game but sometimes it just really annoys me. Like bruh it always glitches for no reason ugh! And once while I was at school one of my class mates 10 TimesTables trophy was gone and I felt bad so that’s why I’m doing this report! Last thing add more sections.

### 2/5 — So many bugs!

*2021-02-22, version 1.3.1*

The “10 minute is up” message is messy, to say the least

### 2/5 — Could be better!

*2021-02-19, version 1.3.1*

My teacher downloaded this app for me cuz I was struggling with TimesTables and tried to play this at home but sometimes if I got the last question correct the car that was racing me past the finish line before me which makes me feel really frustrated please fix this game the car is too fast and please make it a bit more slower
and also if little year 1s or year 2s play this game I’m pretty sure that they will be more frustrated with the game more than I am 
Please fix it overall good game!

### 4/5 — Brilliant but buggy

*2020-11-26, version 1.3.1*

This app is great for my gamer kid to learn her times tables by racing the red car, essentially a timer, and collecting the gold trophies. Regular bugs, we reload the app when this happens. Won’t suit all kids - the pressure of the timer, losing the race, irritation of frequent bugs/crashes. But it’s a complete app for free and works for us x

### 1/5 — dull and outdated

*2026-03-31, version 1.3.1*

i mean like it's ok, but there should be more variation to the time tables and more games to play, also the interface is outdated and hasn't been updated in 8 years according to the changelog

It is great way to keep children doing there times tables but whenever you are close to the finish line the car you are racing speeds up a lot and then wins please fix it!😇👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

### 5/5 — Great for the learning stage - switch to something else for drilling

*2022-08-12, version 1.3.1*

This is the funnest method we’ve found of improving times-table facts. I love the staged learning- first in order, then out of order, then missing number. Highly recommend it!
