Math Evolve is awesome. Great graphics, engaging, and challenging. Great app! My kids love it.

### 5/5 — Best game for math facts!

*2014-11-08, version 3.0*

This game has strengthened my kids math skills. They have fun playing and they can even practice in the car. We missed it so much when it wouldn't work with new OS but we are back in business!

### 5/5 — Amazing math game

Awesome new upgrades and fun for the whole family!

### 5/5 — awesome

*2014-11-01, version 3.0*

lots of fun

### 5/5 — Good App and CS

*2014-11-01, version 3.0*

This was an excellent app that my son love, however, the app has completely stopped working on both my iPhone and iPad mini since upgrading to iOS 8. My son asked everyday if the app is fixed. So we emailed the developer and received a nice reply that they are working to fix it. Looking forward to using the app soon.  

Update Nov 1st- thanks for the upgrade the app works excellently!

### 5/5 — The best

*2014-10-31, version 3.0*

I can honestly say that this is one of the best educational games I have seen in the App Store. My cousins, who range in age from 5-11, absolutely love this game. Getting kids excited about practicing math is one of the most difficult educational tasks, but this game provides the perfect compromise for any parent or teacher. Kids are able to practice their skills, while enjoying the game itself. I only wish I had a tool like this when I was in school. It sure beats math workbooks any day of the week! I highly recommend this game to anyone with kids, brothers, sisters, cousins, nieces or nephews. Or for any adult out there needing some brushing up on their arithmetic! :)

### 5/5 — Interactive, easy to use & educational

*2013-11-01, version 2.0.0*

Math Evolve is a great app to have around when you're waiting for your coffee, food or just sitting at home on the couch (it works great on the small iPhone screen!) In addition, as a graduate student writing papers all the time, I find myself playing Math Evolve just to get the brain juices flowing. The graphics are great and the different difficulty settings make it an ideal app for people of all ages!

### 5/5 — Perfect combination of fun and learning

*2013-11-01, version 2.0.0*

This "game" is the perfect combination of learning and fun. It is an interactive and engaging way to brush up on math skills or learn entirely new ones. The different levels allow you to structure your learning and master multiple areas of math. It beats any multiplication table or flash cards and get kids excited to practice math. It is adaptable to many ages and levels. A great learning tool that I would recommend to anyone interested in getting their kids to practice math!

### 5/5 — Great game for math practice

*2013-11-01, version 2.0.0*

Finally, somebody made a math game that is actually fun for kids.  It's easy to learn but also challenging, and the different settings make it appropriate for a wide age range.  The practice mode is great for straight up math drills, and it's definitely better than flash cards. It's even fun for adults, just try playing on expert!

### 5/5 — This game is a game changer!

*2013-11-01, version 2.0.0*

After having tried other math apps, where I watched my students fail to have fun while learning, I reached for Math Evolve. Seeing my students laugh and smile while really mastering their math chops is incredible! Who would of thought I would be asked if it was OK to play another 10 minutes of a math video game. Just amazing. Highly recommend this app for teachers and parents alike.

### 5/5 — Fun math app

*2013-06-06, version 1.5*

Math Evolve is really like an old-school video game. Think Space Invaders! ;-) This would be good for doing math facts and problems and keeping the boredom "enemy" at bay. I could see it being popular with elementary (and older) kids especially boys. It was hard to hold the iPad and shoot. It may be easier with a smaller device like an iPhone or iPod.

### 5/5 — Great Game!

*2013-06-06, version 1.5*

Math Evolve is a fun engaging math drill game set in outer-space for elementary level kids. There are 2 modes you can play in: Practice mode or Story mode. In Practice mode, you choose the operation - addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division, as well as the speed and difficulty levels. In this mode, it is fairly easily to figure out how to cheat to get the right answer. Story mode proves to be much more challenging and engaging even though you choose the equations. In it, you must not only solve the equations, but ward off attackers at the same time. The story mode is pure genius...as kids need to really have assimilated the material to perform under the stress of evasion. I also liked the fact while in story mode, you had to use both hands to get through the level, and therefore use both sides of your brain. There are no in add purchases or ads, but there is a link to other games, discreetly hidden in a corner on the profile page. Highly recommended.

### 5/5 — Favorite Math Game

*2013-05-30, version 1.5*

As the title says, this is my favorite math game for the iPad or iPhone. It is an absolute blast to play and you can feel yourself getting noticeably better at math as you play. I used to be very quick with mental math when I was younger and playing Math Evolve has gotten me back up to speed in no time. It reminds me of an old PC game called Math Blaster. Both games are so much fun and engaging they keep you coming back for more learning. Highly recommend for parents to get their kids exited about learning math, and adults interested in keeping their minds and math skills quick.

### 5/5 — Most intense & awesome Edutainment app out there!

*2012-08-03, version 1.31*

My son hated math. He was tired of the practice, practice, practice mentality of his school, and was outright refusing to do any math whatsoever. Then, this game came along, This app is not for Kindergarteners new to math. My son was in first grade when we purchased this app. He still plays it all the time. This app is definitely appealing to highly distractible boys who don't want to feel like they are learning . . . Ever! This app is so fast and intense, your child won't have time to notice he is learning, and surely won't care!

One tip for parents, you may want to sit there with your child and help him with the math initially - especially if it is a new concept. But, don't worry, he will insist on doing it by himself in no time. 

This app is worth it's weight in gold. You will not regret purchasing this app!

### 1/5 — Very good 10 out of 10

*2018-11-02, version 4.0*

😀

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work on my iPad

*2018-07-17, version 4.0*

After the few intro screens, it is just a black screen with music playing.

### 1/5 — Way too fast!

*2015-01-10, version 3.0*

We homeschool our children, in part because we believe in a gentle pace of life - they don't watch live TV, no commercials, no fast cutting. 

I tried this game. I'm good at math. But even at the slowest turtle pace, simple addition problems, say 21+23, flash onscreen for 2 seconds, maximum 3, before vanishing (the numbers remain at the top but that means switching your attention when you should be focusing on the addition), and there's a definite pressure to remember the numbers you've seen that is greater than the simple challenge of adding them. 

I regret buying this game. Our ten year old doesn't like it and I have no intention of exposing our six year old to something so fast. 

If turtle pace really meant that, and it was relaxed and gentle, this could be an excellent tool. But I think it's potentially stress-inducing to anyone who doesn't function at a fast pace, and we have taught our children meditation to slow their thoughts down. I don't want a math game that speeds everything up, at least not in the initial stages. I wish I could get a refund.

### 1/5 — I purchased this for my first generation iPad but it crashes immediately.

*2014-11-28, version 3.0*

Help please?

### 4/5 — a bit fast

*2012-01-02, version 1.1*

The set up, look and idea of this "game" are GREAT! however, my complaint is it moves a bit fast to "read" the question, think the answer, and then get to that answer. If there would be a way to "slow it down" that would be wonderful!  I paid the $1.99, and think it is worth that...

### 5/5 — Excellent math game for all ages!

*2020-06-12, version 4.1*

This is a wonderful math game!

Pros:
- One-time purchase, no subscriptions or in-app purchases
- Can’t beat $2
- Customization; can be set for addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Control given for difficulty of equations.
- A really fun game similar to arcade shooters 
- Kids can grow into this for years

Cons:
- None

I commend the developer. I was looking for a game similar to the old Math Blaster game when I was a kid and found this. My 5 year old loves it and is learning a lot.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2018-06-01, version 4.0*

Math Evolve has managed to perfectly blend fun with learning, and my kids can't get enough. There are different difficulty settings for each of my children, and they love competing. The practice mode is also great if we want to work on just the math practice.

### 5/5 — This app is a must for kids!

*2018-05-27, version 4.0*

Great for kids! My daughter is learning the critical foundational math skills she will need as she approaches more advanced math classes . Highly recommended for kids who are 8-12 years old.

### 5/5 — Best math app out there

*2018-05-18, version 4.0*

I have bought a lot of the other math apps out that that claim to be fun, but my child quickly becomes bored with most of them. I usually have to encourage him to play the educational apps.  Math Evolve is different, it is so fun and he actually chooses to play.  This is the best math app I've seen, highly recommended!

### 5/5 — Our favorite math game

*2018-05-18, version 4.0*

We have tried many math games in the app store and my kids love this game the most. This game is really fun AND educational for kids.

### 5/5 — Best Math App Out There!

*2018-05-17, version 4.0*

I’ve downloaded a ton of math apps (I homeschool) including those that one has to pay a subscription for.  This is my all time favorite, hands down.  My son doesn’t even realize that he is learning and plays it for as long as I let him.  People were amazed when he was working with negative numbers at six years old.  The games also include “solve for the missing number” type questions(precursor to basic algebra so to speak) along with basic math facts.  It was the best app for moving my son from needing to count on his fingers to using his memory.  It happened like magic.  So much better than our mutual tears over flash cards, and other apps like Xtra Math.  Instead of seeing a timer, which stressed him out, the answers just come closer and pass out of range if he is not fast enough.  It’s, “Oh darn”, verses”I’m stupid” which is how timed apps made him feel.  Love it.  Better than ABCYa or anything else I’ve tried.  LOVE IT!  Beautiful graphics to boot!

### 5/5 — Great learning game

*2016-03-05, version 3.0*

This is a good balance of fun and education. Original, interesting, and fun. I don't usually leave reviews, actually this is the first review I've ever written. My kids love it though, and I'm happy they are learning

### 5/5 — Fun & challenging

*2016-02-13, version 3.0*

Between dodging monsters and navigating through numbers, this game keeps your mind engaged and your math quick! Great for adults looking to brush up mental math too.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2015-07-17, version 3.0*

Great app

### 5/5 — math evolve

*2014-11-22, version 3.0*

Great for kids learning math. parents can get involved and review the stats to help your child focus on facts they are troubled with.
