YinYu is a wonderful, fascinating mathematical game for children of all ages (over 9 years old is recommended)! The Yinyu math game app is especially targeted for STEM programs in middle school and high school. YinYu uses PEMDAS to evaluate the polynomial expressions so children play a game while learning how to evaluate and build PEMDAS algebraic expressions. PEMDAS algebraic expressions are used in mathematics and in computer software evaluations. We have a YinYu Worldwide Leader Board for keeping track of your scores. Try to be Ranked World Number #1!! There are three major steps with 17 levels in each step. Step 1 - Levels 1 – 17 (Start Levels): The game will randomly select numbers from 1 through 20. You must solve for the given answer using the three numbers (operands) and two operators. Every time you solve a question you go up to the next level and gain higher and higher scores to post to the Leader Board!! Step 2 - Levels 17 -34 (Harder Levels) The game will randomly select numbers from 1 through 100. You must solve for the given answer using four numbers and three different operators. Base score points double. Step 3 - Levels 34 and up (Hardest Levels): The game will randomly select numbers from 1 through 100. You must solve for the given answer using all 5 numbers and all 4 operators. Base score points triple. Score points are earned by the remaining time on the timer, if time expires and you can solve the puzzle and base points are earned. The Leader Board is Global and is stored in the Apple cloud using Apple App cloud Services.

Iron Sharpens

Read full description

Iron Sharpens is a tool for Christians who want to grow deeper together. Giving you two ways to gather, talk, and grow in the Word. PROMPTS — Conversations that matter Over 500 discussion prompts across 11 themed decks– each anchored to Scripture. Pull up a card, read the passage, and let the conversation begin. Perfect for small groups, Bible studies, families, road trips, married couples, mentoring, or one-on-one's anywhere. Decks include *Faith Foundations, The Word, Prayer Life, Christ & the Cross, and more*—each prompt is paired with King James Version scripture you can read right in the app (Words of Jesus shown in red). CHARADES — Bible charades for your group A heads-up–style party game built on Scripture. Hold the phone to your forehead and your friends act out, describe, or quote the clue without saying it. Tilt down when you guess it, tilt up to pass. Choose Scenes, Characters, Events, or Random, set how many cards and how long each turn lasts, and see the scripture reference behind every clue. HIGHLIGHTS: • 500+ scripture-anchored discussion prompts • 11 themed decks for every season of faith • Bible charades with motion controls—nothing to tap mid-game • Full King James Version passages built in, with red-letter text for Jesus's words • Clean, distraction-free design • Works completely offline– no ads, account, or subscriptions. Whether you're leading a small group, gathering the family, or sharpening one friend over coffee, Iron Sharpens turns time together into conversations that count. "Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend." — Proverbs 27:17 "For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them." — Matthew 18:20
