Latest reviews of Myles & Ayesha - Black Inventors Match Game app for iPhone and iPad
Ive always loved match games this is a great twist on the concept. You learn African American history and have a great time while doing it. Who knew a black man had the patent for a cookie cutter!!!! What an awesome and innovative game.
I have played this game about 10 times now. I didnt know an African American invented the super soaker!! This app is great!! Perfect for young people. Its educational and fun!!
I never expected to find something like this at the App store. It is fun to play and educational. My kids love it and have told me about a few inventions I wasnt aware of. I will definitely recommend this fun app to friends.
My kids love this game! (okay, so do I!) Thanks for creating a game like this that teaches our children in the midst of fun. I love both character and I cant wait to see what else they will be up to in the future.
Glad to have found this game. My young niece and nephew are always asking to play games on my iPhone, and they like the match game and cute characters that look like them. Love the Black history element! At age 3 & 5, theyre too young to read the descriptions of the inventions, but I loved sharing it with them. We all learned something! (The egg beater -- who knew?!?) More games like this, please!!
