DragonBox Algebra 12+ - The award-winning math learning game App Reviews

great game for the money well worth the investment, though i have a 2013 MBP and it heats it up really quick which is a little unnerving since this is built for a tablet/phone app

This game is great for helping my students learn algebra. Lots of levels!! :) There might be a minor issue with level 10-18. It says 30 moves max and when the solution is shown it doesn’t actually solve the problem. The lowest I got was 31/30 moves… maybe a little mix up??

Hi there. I am really struggling to figure out the “help” video on level 6-19. It is incomplete and I actually don’t understand what is being done. And I have a college degree. :/ HELP!

The concept and, for the most part, the execution, is pretty good. However, math fluency requires numeracy, which is the understanding that there are multiple ways to get to the same place. This app counts the number of steps needed to solve each problem "perfectly", when in fact alternate solutions are perfectly fine. I wont be using this with my students because I dont want them to fall into the traditional textbook trap of, "Theres only one way to do this…." And, by the way, I solved a couple of the problems in significantly fewer steps than given, so the count is misleading anyway. Id probably have given the app four or five stars if solving the problem in more than the designated number of steps didnt make it look as if the problem wasnt solved correctly.
