I love to play all the time and I am 50+ however it is awesome to have when you have children or tweens around to keep them occupied for a while. And on top of that it is rated “G” and no violence! It’s so cute if you have your sound on the animals make there correct noise. LOVE THE GAME!! ### 5/5 — Great for kids *2017-11-03* The sound effects are fun. A great spin on the memory game. ### 4/5 — Matching pairs *2017-10-27* Great game amuse children for ages ### 5/5 — Software update needed please!! *2017-10-18* Please update the app to iOS 11!!! I was so disappointed when I couldn’t access the game after updating my phone. 😔 ### 5/5 — Update *2017-10-12* Great game but can no longer play it, needs updating. ### 5/5 — AniMatch *2017-09-24* Please update for iOS 11 — we really love this game!! ### 5/5 — Update to iOS 11 *2017-09-21* My kids still love and so do I. Update ### 5/5 — Fun *2017-08-11, version 1.7.1* Fun for all ages! ### 5/5 — FUN FOR ALL *2017-07-20* Update: years later I am still utilizing this game. I'm a nurse anesthetist and this game works as well, if not better than drugs, to ease children away from their parents. It's a fun distraction and they match from the outpatient area all the way to the OR, as they ride on my stretcher. It's been a life saver. I originally got this for my 3 year old and he loves it. However, my husband and I have enjoyed it just as much if not more. We are in competition and I just beat his record time. Cant wait to tell him Im a better animatcher!!! ### 5/5 — Awesome for younger kids! *2016-12-23* My children have played this for years. They started really getting the hang of the concept around 18 months. My 4yo plays it a lot too. And I'll even catch my 7yo playing it. It's one of those games I enjoy playing with them, and has been a 'go-to' for years. ### 5/5 — Great *2016-02-15* My 2 year old loves this during diaper changes and it doesn't make me feel guilty since I consider it to be mentally stimulating. I play it too, on occasion ;-) ### 5/5 — Still playing *2015-11-06, version 1.7.1* My kids and I all have fun with this simple, quick game. Good to play if you just need a short break. ### 4/5 — OMG *2015-07-28* Love it but sometimes it gets a bit boring ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Keine Töne - läuft nicht richtig *2017-07-15* Ich habe mir diese App auf Empfehlung gekauft, aber aber die Töne funktionieren nicht. Sehr schade und somit ein Fehlkauf. ### 1/5 — No sound *2016-09-13* Would be good for a youngster if the sound would work ### 1/5 — No sound!! *2015-12-23, version 1.7.1* I just purchased this app! Went by the ratings!!! There is NO sound! Please fix ASAP! ### 1/5 — Ani match *2012-05-20, version 1.6.1* As a paid app should have more than one level. ### 1/5 — Friendly + for iPad *2011-10-19* Impossible d'avoir accès au chat ### 1/5 — Veesavannahfinley *2009-06-22, version 0* My son won't stop playing it and even has a game challenge with his other 3 year old friend.great for the doctors waiting room ### 2/5 — I guess so but not me *2013-03-15, version 1.6.1* It ok but annoying . While being educational it's very annoying . U can't pause it like of I have a dead battery I have to turn of my iPod and when I play it again I have to start over so I think that animatch is 👎😲😤😖😒😡 ### 2/5 — Так себе *2011-12-28* Нет выбора сложности. Ребенку быстро надоела, нет усложнения задачи. А, через несколько дней пропал звук. ### 3/5 — No sound *2016-09-10* Bought yesterday and there is no sound. My 2 year old is not happy as there is sound when she plays this on the Samsung version. ### 3/5 — No variety *2014-05-18, version 1.7* Good game for limited use. There is NO variety to this game. There are NO options to change the number of cards nor the animals being used. It is repetitive with the same number of cards and same animals so it makes it boring after a few times. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Best app, with no blinking links with ads! *2025-04-23* This is one of three apps I love for kids! Good for them and no blinking apps to send the kids off the game !! Very few apps like that ### 5/5 — The best game ever *2024-12-14* The most fun thing about this game was the animal’s ### 5/5 — Great for entertaining small children *2023-08-22* Simple but well designed. Worth having for those occasions when you want to distract a small child. ### 5/5 — Love it *2021-10-11* More puzzles please ### 5/5 — educational while entertaining *2021-08-26* This is the 2nd “memory-match” app I’ve installed on my Ipad for my Great-Great-Grand son I care for two days every week. I am particular over the Apps I select for Ashton (age 3 3/4 years young). I’m simply lovin’ this. Just installed. Little Man will play with it on Monday. I know he will looooove it! Thank You so very much to the creators. BTW: At 82, I’m playing it too, to test (my memory)! ### 5/5 — Simple but effective *2020-06-13* All 3 of my kids have played and enjoyed this over the years.....and maybe their Dad too a bit 😁 My son played it heaps for a while and I can’t keep up, His record is 25seconds, Can’t imagine it can be done inside 20, but who knows 🤷‍♂️ ### 5/5 — Nicht nur für die Kleinen *2020-06-10* Da kein Kind mehr im Haus, muss ich spielen . Das tue ich sehr gerne 😉. Super Idee ! 👍 ### 5/5 — AniMatch *2020-03-30* I used to play this game when I was little and I loved it and I still love it now I never want it to go away ### 5/5 — Delightful *2020-03-13* The best part about this game is its graphics. They look great! The app is a straightforward game of “Concentration,” with a timer. All the essentials with no distracting and unnecessary fluff. Fun for all ages! ### 5/5 — Animatch *2019-05-11* 56-yr old Animatcher! Very hard to beat my own high score but I keep trying. Will sometimes play but don’t want sounds, even though they are cute as heck, but would like an option to turn sound off without having to turn phone sound off—sometimes I forget to turn it back on. Make an adult version with different cocktails or foods. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
