About this game

Algebra for Beginners deals with several topics usually found in Elementary Algebra. It is essentially a game to introduce student to algebra.

Lesson & quiz
The game consists of levels, with lesson and quizzes available on each level.

Inside of each quiz in a level, player will be asked to find the missing value of an unknown number that is represented by a letter symbol (e.g: x,y). The lesson in each level provides player with the skill required to find the missing value.

To progress in the game level, player need to obtain stars in each available quizzes at corresponding level. Star(s) can be obtained by performing well in taking the quiz, implying that the player has already grabbed the level lesson well.

Problem pattern
Increasing level number represent more complex steps to find the missing value. Each levels may contains one or more sub level quiz with same level of difficulty but different patterns of problem.

Gradually increasing difficulty is aimed to teach skills needed to simplify an algebraic expression one pattern of problem at a time.

Ratings and reviews

I will update my review if needed but through lesson 2 I have enjoy the simplicity of this app. It's a great way to learn the basics again while also getting into the complexities later. I know people complain about ads but at the end of the day it's a free app. Somebody spent their own time and money to make it. I paid to remove the ads at a very reasonable price. My only ask would be for an option to turn off multiple choice. I would like to type in my answer so I'm not swayed by the option.

The text for the quiz is too small. Not visible for me. Increasing the size cuts off the top part of the text. The app is unusable now. I will wait a week to see if you can fix the problem. If not I will delete the app. The quiz uses a blackboard image. Please use the large space provided to display the text for the quiz. If not for this problem it's a great app. Thank you for your effort.

Pros: Really really fun way to refresh your algebra; or even just learn it to begin with. The text is clean, (usually struggle telling "=" and "-" apart on my phone. Not here) It's responsive and seems mostly quite stable. Cons: The ads, the ads, the ads. It's frustrating to try a level over and over again, just to have to sit through the same ad for the 20th time in a row. Sometimes I get ads up to 20 times in a row, sometimes not for an hour playing.
