A dreidel is a four-sided spinning top, played with during the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah (also spelled Chanukkah, Chanukah, and Hanukah). Each side of the dreidel has a letter of the Hebrew alphabet: נ (Nun) ג (Gimel) ה (Hei) ש (Shin) Together, these form the acronym for "נס גדול היה שם" (Nes Gadol Haya Sham). This translates to "a great miracle happened there". These letters also form a mnemonic for the rules of the game played with a dreidel: Nun stands for the Yiddish word nite ("nothing"), Hei stands for halb ("half"), Gimel for gants ("all"), and Shin for shteln ("put"). Dreidel in Yiddish is written as דרײדל or using Roman characters: dreydl This app is a simple simulator of the dreidel itself. You can spin the dreidel with a swipe of your finger, or by using two fingers and "spinning" it. When it lands, a popup will appear that shows you what you got and what to do when you're playing the game. There are real sounds of kids playing right along with you! Happy Chanukah and have some fun! ## Key features - 3D dreidel simulation - Spin with swipe or two fingers - Learn Hebrew letters and game rules - Authentic sounds of children playing - Popup displays results and actions ## Recent user reviews (8 of 8) All indexed reviews: https://appshunter.io/ios/app/igevalt-dreidel-simulator/id485410634/reviews.md ### 1/5 — Does not load on my iPad Air *2016-06-19* App freezes at the load screen. It's a shame, it looks good but ultimately it's a nun. ### 1/5 — Mr *2015-12-14* It doesn't work. ### 1/5 — Would not load and could not play. *2015-12-11* I was very disappointed in the game. It would not load after I purchased it. I see in the reviews that this has been a problem next time I'll look at the reviews. I want my money back. I purchased it for my class for cultural diversity. If it works at another point I will rate it again. ### 5/5 — Great! No problems *2015-12-07* Great fun. In all honesty, I paid the .99 just because of the apps name - awesome! ### 1/5 — Trouble with app *2015-12-06* App will not load, please help!!!!!! ### 1/5 — Doesn't work *2015-12-03* I bought this game to play with my students. I was not able to find a dreidel at a store, so I was excited to find an app version. I went to play with my students, and the app would not load. The app appeared to download just fine, but when you open it, it says loading and you are not able to play the game. Very disappointed. ### 5/5 — Awesome *2013-02-06* You wouldn't think so, but this was probably the best dollar I have spent in awhile! My kids made me buy it, because they had "studied" hannukah in school. Wouldn't you know... They all love the sounds this little app makes. It is the favorite app of our 11 month old son, and the 4 and 6 year old boys can't stop spinning the dreidel either! For adults? Probably not worth the buck, but if you need to amuse a kid, this will last longer than you would expect! ### 2/5 — Not that great *2011-12-12* Should keep score for multiple players. ## Frequently asked questions about iGevalt ### What is iGevalt? iGevalt is a 3D dreidel simulator designed for Hanukkah.
