Play To Learn

Game Title: Math Sports
What is the Learning goal/topic of the game: The learning goal of the game was to find the square root of the numbers that were given to you.
Was the game fun to play? Why or why not?: The game was actually fun to play. I really liked the graphics, they were so creative! It also explains in detail what you need to do. Some of the obstacles were really fast and that made you want to play the game more.
Did the game do a good job of teaching the topic, why or why not?: Yes, but at the same time no. I mean, you actually have to know the square roots. Anyways, I did like it!

Game Title: Mathlodon
What is the Learning goal/topic of the game: The topic of the game was Math. It was about solving hard problems that you can't possibly memorize.
Was the game fun to play? Why or why not?: I honestly didn't like it because it was too hard! Those were questions that I didn't know. I actually need to have a calculator or a piece of paper to solve them.
Did the game do a good job of teaching the topic, why or why not? No, it didn't do a good job on teaching. Like I said, those problems got harder the more you played.

Game Title: Math Blocks
What is the Learning goal/topic of the game: The topic was about Math too. It was about adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing.
Was the game fun to play? Why or why not?: The game was fun to play. You had to hurry because you had a tetris piece and you had to put it the right way.
Did the game do a good job of teaching the topic, why or why not?: I actually think it did because as you were reading the problem, you tried to hurry as much as possible to solve it. A timed game can be an excellent way to learn it, forcefully.
