### 1/5 — The skateboard game not working

*2023-09-08*

😡😡😡😡😡

**Developer response:** Hi. We are sorry to hear this. Please, write to us at support@learnyland.com and we will help you!

### 2/5 — A veces incomprensible

*2023-01-30, version 1.5*

Esta aplicación tiene mucha información interesante, pero el problema es que algunas tareas parecen imposibles de completar (la laca en aerosol de las tablas de skate, por ejemplo). Los controles son demasiado precisos y no muy intuitivos para un niño. Sería una muy buena aplicación si mejoraran los controles y la hicieran más intuitiva.

 Pero el gran problema, que comparte con TODAS las aplicaciones de este desarrollador, es que ofrecen de manera muy prominente el catálogo de todas sus aplicaciones para la compra. El botón es muy atractivo, luce como un juego o actividad más. Resulta muy frustrante para padres e hijos que la atención de los niños sea dirigida de una manera tan agresiva a comprar, y comprar, y comprar. Las recomendaciones ni siquiera siguen un criterio de similitud o de un rango de edad. 
 Cada vez que un niño abre una de esta aplicaciones, se puede esperar la discusión de "no, ese juego es para niños más grandes" o "hoy no vamos a comprar esa aplicación, juega con las muchas que ya tienes" (del mismo desarrollador). 
 Hemos eliminado todas las aplicaciones (por las que hemos pagado una pequña fortuna) porque es imposible de usar sin que surja un conflicto.

### 4/5 — Awesome educational game with minor bugs

*2021-07-03*

We love playing this game and learning about how everything is made. There does however seem to be a bug in the skateboard part of the app where it gets stuck in the varnishing stage and we can never progress. Would be great if you could sort this out.

**Developer response:** Hi! Thanks for your review! Please, contact us at info@learnyland.com and we will help you fix the issue.
Thanks!

### 2/5 — Lesado

*2019-06-03*

Comprei porque achei que a ideia era boa e por ser “totalmente narrado”. Jogo não possui narração. Apenas escrito. Fica difícil para uma criança de três anos. Para dar alguma utilidade eu mesmo vou contando o que acontece e como funciona. Pegadinha do malandro.

**Developer response:** Lamentamos muito que o jogo não esteja narrado como esperado. Isso não deveria acontecer, pois o app é projetado para ter narração. Por favor, envie-nos um e-mail para support@learnyland.com para que possamos investigar e resolver isso para você.

### 1/5 — Die App funktioniert leider garnicht!

*2019-04-16*

Schade!

**Developer response:** Es tut uns leid, dass Sie enttäuscht sind. Bitte kontaktieren Sie uns unter support@learnyland.com, damit wir erfahren können, was genau passiert ist und wie wir Ihnen helfen können.

### 1/5 — Terrible game

*2018-11-12*

This was so disappointing. The gameplay is incredibly unclear and confusing to navigate, while the mini games are far too simple. No fun at all.

### 5/5 — ¡Estupenda!

*2018-11-09, version 1.0*

Estupenda app para aprender cómo se hacen las cosas. ¡100% recomendable!

### 5/5 — Genial

*2018-11-09, version 1.0*

Cómo se hace el pan, el chocolate, las camisetas, un monopatín, etc.

### 5/5 — Aprender divertiendose

*2018-11-08, version 1.0*

Una app genial, divertida y didáctica! La mas pequeña de casa no para de hacer chocolate.

No esperaba menos, seguir asi👍🏻👍🏻

### 5/5 — Descubrimiento

*2018-11-08, version 1.0*

Un gran descubrimiento. 100% recomendable
