Reviews: What People Think About Timmy's Kindergarten Adventure

Rating: 4/5
For those who aren’t familiar, Timmy’s Kindergarten Adventure is an award winning mobile game that tells the beautiful story of Timmy Blackfly, a beloved father and husband who is really struggling. He is barely able to keep a home, struggling with his worklife, and is diagnosed with intestinal cancer. In the mid fourties’, he and his brother, Caesar, are drafted into World War II. During an extremely intense battle in the Himalayan Mountains, Caesar is killed. After the battle, Timmy is sent on a mission to retrieve plans from a school. After a grueling journey, he finally reaches the school. Here’s my complaint. Timmy is a loyal man, and would never destroy the plans. He would do whatever was necessary to help his family, and if that meant surviving in the war and following orders, he would do it. Timmy is killed for nothing, and the devs should have gotten their characters straight. As a proud fan of the Timmy’s Kindergarten Adventure Videogamic Universe, Timmy wouldn’t do such a selfish thing, willingly endangering his beloved family. And then he has the nerve to feel bad for getting them killed. And he would never have seeked revenge against Morgan for killing his family, he’s not the vengeful type. It’s a beautiful story, but the last few chapters don’t make sense to me.

This is great example of how gamification can help motivate people to do otherwise undesirable tasks. The player must complete math, word identification, phonics, and time-telling activities in order to play the fun mini-games that are at the end of game. Also, by performing the academic tasks well, the player accumulates credits that can be used to ‘buy’ trophies (don’t worry, no in-app purchases, it is purely symbolic). This has teaches the value of saving toward a goal, and greater rewards for good performance.
I’m pretty impressed by some of the math problems, which border on basic algebra (solve for ‘x’), like 2 + x = 5. I don’t think he’s been exposed to this kind of problem before, and it was pretty cool to see it register with him.
On Saturday he asked to watch only one TV program so that he’d have more time to play this game. I’m sure any parent of a 5 year-old can appreciate it's significance.

For me, the proof is in the results! My 5 yr old is solving the subtraction, word and time problems faster and still enjoying herself! It's fun, it gets progressively more challenging and she loves the interactive store at the end!!! She chooses to play this game over all the hundreds of other apps we have!!! Thank you for this!!!
