Pros and cons of Twelve a Dozen app for iPhone and iPad

Twelve a Dozen app good for

Seems like its probably for children, but makes a nice low-stress puzzle for adults too. The character and voice acting are charming.

This is a terrific game for helping kids learn math concepts. The production value is really high and the story is intriguing.

A clever platformer full of puzzles to escape monsters and traps. This game is fun, not despite but because of its riddles.

Some bad moments

The helper-voice gives just enough aid without being annoying, and the puzzles, while pretty simple at first, are fun and rewarding.

I played it for over an hour. Can’t wait for my 3-year old to be old enough to play it. Love the direction educational software is going.

Heres a math game that is on the right track. Instead of using math as an obstacle to overcome, it uses it as a tool to solve puzzles! Nice lighthearted art, simple and fluid controls. Sometimes subtitles get in the way of game play. Good value for the price. A couple small program glitches...a few small fixes, and this game will deserve 5 stars.

The app is supper amazing but there are only 3 worlds but at least its amazing. The only problem is that they needs more worlds at least 5

This game is very clever and fun. Im enjoying playing it with my 3rd and 6th graders. We will hate to get to the end!

So much fun. I cant wait to use it with my kids. Such a great way to learn math.
