Mystery Math Town for iPhone

What it is and what you do with it: a math puzzle game (addition, subtraction, multiplication practice).

Solve math problems to unlock rooms and passages in the houses in the Math Town. Collect fireflies and coins to unlock new talking portraits in the Math Town Gallery.

What we liked: the concept (math practice in a game-like environment). Engagement factor (practice through play). Good educational value. Illustrations and animations. Humor and fun factors. Multiple user accounts with customizable skill sets. Overall quality of the app.

What we didn't like: gets difficult too quickly. We missed some sort of clues to solve the equations (the 'lifelines' just skip a problem). No progress/report charts.
