### 5/5 — Excellent

*2015-11-17*

Excellent - interactive trip around China learning Cantonese words. You click on a place, a object and the lady tells you it's name then at the end you have a small test/game to recap what you have learnt. It's perfect for young kids AND for adults wanting to learn the language (like my husband 😀). Recommended

### 5/5 — Accurate and enjoyable for kids

*2013-07-10*

The pronounciation is accurate.  My kids love this app.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2013-01-02*

It's nice to see such a good quality app available for Cantonese, as decent Cantonese language learning resources seem to be few and far between. My only wish is that there were more vocabulary items, but other than that it's perfect.

### 5/5 — fantastic app!

*2012-12-29*

We love Gus on the go! The app is easy to use and really fun to play. It's a bargain at $4.99 considering how much I'd pay for a similar language software. Highly recommended!

### 5/5 — Awesome!

*2012-12-21*

This app is pretty awesome. The speaker is very clear. The activities are fun. Graphics are vibrant. My 4-yr old daughter was actually interested in learning our language.

### 1/5 — HARDLY ANY CONTENT

*2022-01-21*

Theres like nothing on the app. Barely anything….

### 3/5 — Meh

*2017-11-08*

Begins with farm animals. Makes you unlock every level. I would have liked to be able to go to other levels before finishing the farm, such as body parts (head shoulders, knees and toes).

### 4/5 — Great app for little ones

*2020-05-30*

My preschooler loves this. He learned a lot of new words from this. I wish there are more lessons and games. Please update this app.

### 4/5 — Awesome!!

*2017-02-27*

This app is great! It is well thought out and my daughter enjoys it. Learning through play has never seemed so much fun. The only drawback is this hasn't been updated since 2013?! Please update for apple compatibility and continue to add more games!

### 5/5 — Great

*2024-07-08*

I love it and my mom also speaks the language so yeah

### 5/5 — Cute and educational language app!

*2024-05-19*

My 4 year old loves this app! I like that it was intuitive for them, they learned the mechanics on the first try and this is the first app “game” they’ve ever tried. They were very motivated to keep unlocking levels. The games and animals are cute and very kid friendly. The pronunciation is clear too. It makes me happy my kid likes learning Chinese when we predominantly speak English!

### 5/5 — Fun App!

*2022-11-19*

Such a good app for kids to learn Cantonese!

### 5/5 — Great!

*2022-02-26*

I’m an adult who learns much better through games, rather than just repeating words. I thought I’d give this a go and I’m actually remembering what I’m learning which is rare for me when it comes to other languages! I love how cute this game is and I’m really enjoying it☺️

### 5/5 — Great app

*2019-01-13*

Absolutely think this app is brilliant! My daughter is 5 y/o and hardly knows any canto but after downloading this, she is engrossed in the app and learning at a really fast pace. The app makes it fun which keeps her wanting to play more. Five stars for sure! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Definitely recommend!!! 👏🏻

### 5/5 — Fun!

*2017-02-12*

I'm working with my 4 year old on our Chinese. I'm an ABC and picking up a language is hard. This app makes it fun. We play the games standing in our weekend Trader Joe's line, and pick up vocab here and there. I recommend and am looking for similar.

### 5/5 — Fun, addictive, well thought

*2016-09-11*

I am 6 years old. I love this game! It is awesome! (-K.S.)

Very nicely presented. It's fun, well paced, and well thought out for independent learning. I love that as levels progress, it mixes and matches previously learned vocabulary. It corrects wrong answers. Very addictive. At first play, my daughter wouldn't stop playing and learning for almost an hour! I hope they continue to make advancing levels to break into short phrases. Or verbs!

Great job!
-Mom

### 5/5 — Good introduction to Cantonese

*2016-08-01*

Fun games for learning basic vocabulary.

### 5/5 — Engaging as a game and for learning

*2016-02-13*

My daughter has really shown an interest in learning Cantonese through this game. As a non Cantonese speaker It is the best app that I have come across for the kids and I have tried to learn along with them. Their grandparents, who are Chinese join in when they have been playing. I just wish that there was further development to continue to add new aspects.

### 5/5 — Utterly fantastic

*2015-12-31*

My two boys are half Chinese but have lived their whole lives in the UK. Prior to an upcoming trip to visit their Chinese family, we were concerned about their lack of Cantonese skills so I promptly looked for a suitable app. We couldn't be happier. Not only do they love playing it but both the 2 and 5 year olds learned over 50 words, including accurate pronunciation inside of an hour. I cannot recommend this enough for any kids needing to learn Cantonese!!! 5 stars! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
