If you make a good level this will be 4 stars ### 4/5 — Middle School algebra review *2020-10-02, version 2.10* I used to hate math but I love it now this game makes math so fun I am so excited to do math now ### 4/5 — Great teaching game. *2020-08-01, version 2.10* Geared toward kids, seems like it was coded by a teacher. However algebraic principles are universal and as a retiree I find it a fun way to keep my mind sharp, i use the flash card option so far. I give it 4 of five stars because it use a little tuning, a more intuitive interface and perhaps more clear instructions as to which options are more child-geared games and which are more for serious study and review of principles. ### 4/5 — Great and fun *2017-07-08, version 2.07* I didn't think there were problems with the games but I don't game much. I will definitely use this with my students if it doesn't cost much by next fall. ### 2/5 — horrible *2016-03-08, version 2.07* so glitchy I suggest not to get it ### 4/5 — Loving it!! *2015-12-28, version 2.07* Great for learning how to do equations in your head. ### 5/5 — Very good! *2015-01-27, version 2.07* My kid loves it !!! ### 5/5 — Спасибо! *2014-12-10, version 2.07* Благодарю за английский язык! Приложение очень хорошее, т. к. можно одновременно считать и переводить с английского!!! Очень хорошо ### 4/5 — Yas *2014-08-21, version 2.07* Using this game to help me practice my algebra foundations in a fun way. So far I really like it and it's a fun way to practice basics for the gmat ( yes this is really happening lol but at least it's practice!) ### 5/5 — Good Information *2014-08-19, version 2.07* Good Quick review for new school year. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Could be better *2018-03-11, version 2.09* My teacher made us download this "game". I'm not rating this 1 star because it's an educational game: The jumping game is like Doodle Jump, but the monkey moves very slowly. Every time he jumps, after a second I see this sprite where it looks like the monkey's twitching. Did the developers even think anyone would notice this? Also, you can only jump on planks and every time you answer a problem incorrectly, the monkey falls all the way down to the bottom... You've ever played Doodle Jump? The controls on that game are much more slick. Also, there's no penalty if you lose or whatever. Whoever made this game needs to reprogram this. ### 1/5 — I thought it would be better. *2016-04-28, version 2.07* I was hoping that this would be a great app but was let down at the fact that they can't even write an equation properly. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2016-04-15, version 2.07* I hate it,it is terrible wouldn't recommend it to anyone unless you like being bored ### 1/5 — So baller *2015-10-22, version 2.07* J just kidding its trash pece ### 1/5 — No *2015-07-21, version 2.07* No you've got to pay for the whole game boooo ### 1/5 — Нет перевода *2014-09-29, version 2.07* Не адаптировано приложение под русский язык. Нет перевода вопросов. ### 1/5 — Needs work *2013-06-05, version 1.0* In-app paid version. Game physics not great. Problem sets needs work. User interface lacking. ### 2/5 — Hard to read. *2023-04-18, version 2.10* Appreciate the pure educational elements here and that theres no paywall. Love the explanations when needed. BUT the fonts against backgrounds are really hard to read. Transparent menu overlaps and also makes it near impossible to read. Make text bigger and bolder, make backgrounds darker/lighter so that it’s clear to read. Not sure how the designer felt this design layout was adequate. It’s just barely usable. Simple fixes would make this a great math tutor. ### 2/5 — Fatal Flaw - Readability *2021-03-11, version 2.10* The fatal flaw of this game, which is otherwise good, is that the FONTS are very difficult to read against the background images. Possible solutions: 1. Fix the font (larger, bold, drop-shadowed, highlighted, etc.) 2. Fix the background image (lighter images, transparency, turn off, etc). Perhaps you can put this in a settings menu so different users can tweak different settings (Image off or larger font at minimum). I am an algebra teacher looking for a good games for my students. ### 2/5 — Кривой перевод, убогий интерфейс *2018-04-29, version 2.09* А кое где и вовсе перевода нет. Шрифт мелкий даже на айпаде. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — uuuh *2022-06-20, version 2.10* nuhbhubuhhhun ### 5/5 — Brilliant *2020-06-11, version 2.10* Brilliant ### 5/5 — BEST GAME EVER ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜 *2020-06-10, version 2.10* I love learning about Algebra with Monkeys 🐒❤️🧡💛💚💙💜💖❤️🧡💛💚💙💜💖❤️🧡💛💚💙💜💖❤️🧡💛💚💙💜💖❤️🧡💛💚💙💜💖❤️🧡💛💚💙💜💖❤️🧡💛💚💙💜 ### 5/5 — Student *2016-04-16, version 2.07* Very Helpful for beginners and one trying to refresh! ### 5/5 — Fun so far *2016-04-07, version 2.07* Just started playing about 30 minutes ago but having a blast so far. ### 5/5 — Excellent app *2016-01-07, version 2.07* I use this as a review. It's great. It's not instructional, so I wouldn't use it to learn algebra. But it's an excellent review. ### 5/5 — A very good app *2015-08-24, version 2.07* Very useful ### 5/5 — Amazing App! *2015-07-06, version 2.07* This is such an amazing app!
