### 1/5 — Don't buy

*2017-07-18*

It doesn't even give you the right option to choose from.

### 1/5 — This app sucks

*2017-02-09*

I just purchased this app because it came highly recommended however I don't know why. The game often asks for letters and numbers that don't even appear on the screen or the balloon pops before the bee has time to travel across the screen to pop it. I wasted my money and want it reimbursed or a credit for an app that actually works.

### 1/5 — NO SOUND.

*2016-04-18*

Zero stars, but that was not an option.  NO SOUND!  Complete waste of money!

### 1/5 — Frustrated

*2014-01-12*

I purchased the full version but it was a waste of money. They ask you to find a letter but don't give that letter as an option to answer. So my child is looking for "Q" but her only option are "S,A,B,N" Very frustrating, especially when I see my child second guessing herself on what "Q" looks like. Don't waste your money.

### 1/5 — Huge Game Error

*2013-08-05*

This game has major errors!!! The computer asks to pop certain letters/numbers while those letters/numbers aren't even on the game board. That's very confusing for my son! Huge waste of money. I give it 0 stars if I could!

### 1/5 — No sound!

*2013-04-12*

My daughter likes this game but for the past week it has no sound. We paid for upgrade and no way to contact developers from within the game.

### 1/5 — This version only supports colors

*2013-03-20*

Letters and numbers have to be purchased separately. Not sure why apple approved thus since it does not match the description.

### 2/5 — Balloons disappear

*2013-01-15*

Cute idea and my son liked making the bee pop the colored balloons, so I purchased the full version to unlock the numbers and letters (only popping colors is included in the free version). However, the very first time my son plays with numbers, the number balloons with the correct answer disappear before the bee even gets close to it, sometimes before he even taps the balloon. This causes frustration as the correct answer is not even showing part of the time. A waste of even .99

### 1/5 — Didn't work

*2012-05-24, version 1.5*

I download this app and it stops working an closes by itself I need my money back please !!!

### 3/5 — Keeps Closing...

*2012-05-16, version 1.5*

My daughter really liked this game but she told me it broke. Every time she opens it up it crashes. Pretty bummed!
Please fix
