### 1/5 — Poor nutrition habits

*2022-10-27*

You can make the runner go forever without ANY of the food being launched at him but a single burger or cupcake will make him fat. Are we trying to set the foundation for disordered eating in 5 year olds? It would make send if there was a certain level of intake he had to have to continue, because any runner or endurance athlete knows you need to fuel yourself properly. Too little food and he should fail just as much as if he gets fat. This game is a crappy message.

**Developer response:** Hello Ammre,
Thanks for your feedback.
We will share your feedback with our team.
Best Regards

### 2/5 — Not educational

*2019-09-15*

Running part is too easy and not enough math questions

**Developer response:** Dear Rebekahd1984

We are sorry to hear you find it too easy. This game is one of our easiest games for the very young ones. We deliberately made it easier based on feedback. It is a part of our system of 30 games, all included in the subscription.
To get more questions:
In this game there are several characters you can unlock, and to do that you can choose to  answer as many learning math questions as you like. If you press the "person" icon at the bottom left, you will find math question packages of 5, 10 and 25 questions.

Best regards
The SKIDOS Team

### 4/5 — Good education

*2020-03-30*

It’s a good app because children get bored by just doing education but with this app they don’t because you play as well. So really good app I would recommend it for children 4-9

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated! Please be aware that if you have signed up for a trial or subscription (and even for free) you also get access to our other 30+ learning games. Just take a look at the Apple Store and search for SKIDOS Learning Games, or take a look at our website https://skidos.com/portfolio-coolmathgames-coding-games/ for some other fun games to play whilst learning.
