This product is dated and low resolution, but the games are quite good.
Like a lot of math education games, this appears to be a product from the 1990’s repackaged and sold as new. The resolution is low, the graphics weak, and there are no options to set to higher resolution screens. I suppose the fact that the game is listed as compatible with Win 95 and Win 98 should have been a warning sign.
That caveat aside, the games are excellent, have value for speeding math skills, and kept my child’s attention for hours. If you buy this expecting an older product, then I would recommend it.
My kids loved this game because it’s fun, fast moving and has quirky humor. I loved it because kids work on great math and logic problems that are not tedious or frustrating. I wish there was a version for higher grades. As with many of these softwares, the kids “top out” after a few levels and then they’re done with the disk. But on the way they have improved their math and logic skills.
My 6 year old son has played this game a lot over the past 3-4 months and loves it. He’s pretty much done with it now and wants another game like it. This has been a real hit. Get it!
My son (10yrs) had played Math Missions at school and begged me to get it for home. I couldn’t get him to stop playing it. As soon as my other son (8yrs) could get to it, he started and wouldn’t stop as well. They both blasted right through the game, so I guess my only negative is that it wasn’t longer.
Great game for the kids. It seems to be very easy at the lower levels but is still very entertaining.
