MY THOUGHTS:
My boys love the iPad and Odd 1 Out has become one of their favorite games. It is a very simple game but has some great learning aspects to it too. First you choose whether you want to Practice or Challenge. Practice is just freeplay while Challenge is timed. The point of the game is to find the correct shapes, fruits, or colors that it asked. So the game will say find “Mangos” and you have to tap on the screen all the mangos and so forth. It is teaching my boys patience in gameplay as well as they are learning not just to tap all over the screen but pay attention to the directions. They like it and I think it is simple enough for ages 3 and up but even I liked it at my age as a game to take my mind off things!
