Nice app, shame about the other reviewers
If your first reaction to learning about various members of humanity is extreme defensiveness, maybe some self-examination is due, haha.
Regardless, this is a nice app.

Not what I had expected
I was expecting this game to show that different people of the same race can look different. It didn't .
Best game
I think this is the best game I ever play so far and my friends love it 2
Great tool for kids and parents
Fun and educational. Great tool for opening dialogue. Highly recommended.
Waste of time. ๐
I'm tech savvy, and have successfully downloaded hundreds of applications. After logging in to the app, I get a blank white screen. Tried deleting and reinstalling and was met with the same result. Clicked "app support," and taken to a site that offers no support; just a page wherein you can submit your photograph to be included in the app. Seemed interesting and looked forward to playing it with my children. Oh, well.

There aren't enough images of Asian or Arabic people in this app.

My 5yr old said, "write it is a wonderful app!"
Wonderful App!
Great simple awareness that stimulates important conversation and vocabulary! LOVE it!
Great!
Such a smart way to help parents have constructive, positive conversations about a loaded but very important topic.
:)
Great for education and ignoring stereotypes
Great & Educational Fun!
My 4 & 3 year olds love this game. We desperately needed an ice breaker to discussing race and this was it! What a great way to talk about how people are alike and different. I'm confident my kids will be more sensitive about using color as a way to describe others. The tips are truly helpful, especially explaining how we came to be many different skintones.

Very special app - not just a game
This is not a game to play alone, this is a discussion tool, to use with children of all ages.
You are presented with 12 photos (easy mode) of different faces.
Player 1 - chooses a face
then has to pass the phone to player 2 (give it a shake when you pass it, so it knows you have passed it)
Player 2 - has to ask yes or no questions to eliminate the other faces, until they are ready to guess the face you chose.
One they guess the correct person, you can then select their face and see how they describe themselves (I do wish there was more information on each person!)
Kind of like 20 questions, except you have to DESCRIBE the faces, which helps young kids (like mine at 3.5 and 4.5) to practice description words, and allows me to guide them in how to describe people. For older kids, it can help them describe different races and faces.
Throughout the game there are hints and tips on things you can do throughout your daily/weekly life to help your children understand and respect racial differences.
I like this for many reasons:
1. as a game concept, it is great to assist kids with descriptive words and asking yes or no questions
2. clearly race is something all children need to learn to speak about, and this gives us a great tool to use interactively with our kids to assist.
I wish we had a game like this when I was a kid. True story, new neighbors moved in, and I ran home super excited to tell my parents they had 4 kids and that the father was a doctor and wearing his white coat and stethoscope, and so many other things I learned about them. A few days later my mother asked me why I didn't tell her they were african-american... it never occurred to me that it was important! But I have since learned that race IS important, to everyone, especially when describing people, and that learning how to describe different people is a critical aspect of both language and emotional development.
Hope to see more tools like this for discussing important issues with my children.
