Love this! (For a long time)
Fantastic for working on basic math skills! Earn monsters, build up a tropical island, and progressively cooler dance routines for addition and subtraction, and a planet star base for multiplication and division and basic algebra. It’s a fun way for kids to do math while they don’t realize they are being purposefully exposed to number patterns, ones, tens, multiples, differences, substitution, etc. It’s a practice app, not a teaching app. If you want a teaching app, use Endless Numbers another Originator app, or ToDo Math. We’ve had this since it was released and it’s nice to see it evolve. My kid started using this, when he was 4 or 5, and still loves it at 8. Before he could read, I used to read him the missions. (It would be nice if they were recorded for late readers.) The daily quests are a nice motivator. It’d be great to see more mini-games and rewards.

Everything from Originator is top notch
Math tango is an app in its own class on every detail: multiple profiles for the different kids, each profile configurable for the right sequence of challenges so that the child learns but is not frustrated, fun and interesting challenges, both of my kids love playing it, no adds, no unexpected unpleasant surprises. This is my first app review ever, because I love this app. We bought the endless apps from Originator when our kids where very young. Fantastic for reading and numbers. In a class of their own. Now that they are learning math I’m glad to find that this company has the right product. I will blindly continue buying every one of your educational packages at this rate. Fabulous job.

Nothing like any of their previous games
It has some of the whimsy, but that's it. The UI is a confusing mess for kids and adults alike, it uses 3D poorly and makes it hard to see and interact with the objects in the game (no camera control and confusing layout reminiscent of mid-90’s games - in a bad way). It’s reading heavy which makes it unsuitable for young children who otherwise could benefit. So far I can’t locate anything to do other than the column block adding game, which is so repetitive even my four year old groans at it (14’s *again*?). Nothing about it is approachable, entertaining, or fun. It’s rote drilling of the worst kind. The whole purchase system feels like this was going to be a F2P micro transaction abomination, not an enjoyable educational title.
