Ratings and reviews

Nothing but a black screen. My daughter needs it installed for SCHOOL!!!! I have uninstalled and reinstalled 3 times. So I guess she will do without. As I look on the reviews it seems to be a common issue, but I don't see anyone talking about fixing or working on the issue. Last year she had it and it WAS a wonderful app, not this year.

This game is massive! Nearly 1G of data- comparable to a complete human anatomy atlas, and twice the size of a modern mobile RPG. Had to delete a bunch of other apps to make space for it on my kid's tablet. Has performance issues, including display problems that make the app unusable on certain devices. Children shouldn't have to have a high end device just to play a simple learning game. Devs really need to optimize the assets and/or break up into smaller pieces or download modules separately

If you are having issues with the sound, try this! It worked for me. (I copy pasted from a website) You have system sounds muted. Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds. If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery
