ABC Ninja - The Alphabet Slicing Game for Kids for Positive User Reviews
✓ Excellent for letter recognition!This is super for letter recognition, what a fun way to practice this skill- I LOVE how it shows exactly which letters the child got correct and which were missed (although of course errors could simply indicate the child needs to work on fine motor skills too!) I love the ability to change between easy, medium or hard for game settings. I also am having the same issue others have had with the phonics options- no matter what I do they won't play. I can get into the settings where the phonics sounds are recorded, but even though they are turned to "on", when I go to press play, the game only announces letter names..Version: 2.0
✓ No instructions?Game opens to letters and no instructions of how to score points or what the letters mean? Just a ninja game? I don't get it. Updated: turned on microphone in settings for app and works great! Much better. Would still be helpful for parents if there was a brief intro or instructions page..Version: 2.0
✓ Great Slashing Noise!This is a good app. My son plays a long time and recognizes the letters readily. I have 2 issues, however: (1) the letters float over and behind each other so when he tries to slash the correct letter he also hits the wrong letter. Not fair! (2) letters like p b q, W and M look the same when they rotate all over the place so they should not count as wrong. W's are red or white while M's are green??? And also - the parental guide access only works about 1/3 the time. Another issue is with the phonics portion. The /k/ sound is correct for q c and k, but the answer is only correct for one of those at a time. That is incorrect..Version: 1.0
✓ Good but could be betterMy 5 year old grandson is having so much trouble just getting his letters. I thought this would be a good tool to get him going. It would be, except he thinks slashing any letter is fine since he doesn't notice any negative reinforcement for hitting the wrong letters. There's a little different sound and color but the letter still looks like its being slashed, and that's all he's looking for. Please modify the game so there is at least the option available that nothing happens when the wrong letter is slashed. It would be so much better for these hard learners..Version: 2.0
✓ ABC NinjaGreat, FUN app to help young children learn to recognize letter names (both upper- and lowercase letters) and respective sounds. I love how the adult settings allow you to manage which case(s) of respective letter names and/or which sound(s) you decide to focus on learning..Version: 2.0
✓ Another great app from Innovative Mobile AppsDownloaded this app earlier today and I am very impressed with it. Many educational apps try to make learning fun by presenting it in a game format. ABC Ninja takes this one step further by combining the learning with a game that many children will already be familiar with i.e. Fruit Ninja. It is possible to customise the app to focus on specific letters and to choose between letter names and letter sounds..Version: 1.0
✓ JoyfulI love this app for children learning their alphabet. It is tops in the ABC apps since you can choose which letters to appear. I also like the different levels of easy to hard that you can choose since some children are not at the same level in learning. Thank you for this app..Version: 1.0
✓ Great with a minor changeI just played this with my 3yo. He loved it, but wanted to swipe every letter that popped up because it was fun not because he doesn't know his letters. Maybe if nothing happened when you hit the wrong letter it would discourage kiddies from randomly hitting letters..Version: 2.0
✓ Great little app for learning fun!Fun game to reinforce learning the alphabet and beginning phonics. Kids are timed in slicing through the alphabet and/or phonics as an ancient ninja. The customization is great in that you can choose the game duration, difficulty level and random playback of the game. Each letter - In uppercase, lowercase and their corresponding sound can be turned on and off for targeting specific sounds or letters....or to grade the app for early learners. The graphics are clean and uncluttered. Definitely recommended..Version: 1.0
✓ Fun learning toolOnly suggestion is to incorporate the teaching of how to differentiate between upper case and lower case letters..Version: 1.0
✓ Yes!Learning that's fun and mimics an all time favourite game. WTG!!!.Version: 1.0
✓ CustomizableThe ability to customize which letters appear sets this app apart from other ABC recognition apps. This is an engaging game format to work in lots of repetition if needed, or to move ahead if the child is able..Version: 1.0
✓ Great combo for kidsLove this game.Version: 2.0
✓ Great for differentiationThis app is great for new learners and struggling learners alike. I love that I can adjust the settings to help differentiate for each child and that it gives me feedback at the end of each game. The graphics are very appealing and the game keeps their attention for longer than anything else. I love this app and ALL the ninja apps that go along with it!.Version: 3.0
✓ Learning with fun - a great combination.Thanks for such a thoughtful app. I plan to use it to help migrants and refugees who are absolute beginners in English..Version: 2.0
✓ Don’t waste your dollar - There’s no soundMy phone is updated, so the lack of sound is the app - not my phone or settings. What is the point of this game if there is no sound? Don’t waste your dollar..Version: 3.0
✓ Great educational app!This app is very colorful and has nice attractive graphics. I think this will be a great educational tool. I'd like to see them add an option for 2, 3, and, 4 letter word as well as numbers. Maybe graphical images of common nouns like those found in their flash card apps would be good also. Then it would be pretty perfect. I noticed that some of the audio doesn't sound equalized for at least the phonics. Some of the sounds come through quite loudly and clearly over the iPad speaker while others are very hard to hear on max volume. Hopefully this issue will be resolved in the next update..Version: 1.0
✓ Great!Excellent app to keep the kids engrossed. The first level is so simple that even a 1 year old will be swiping the letters and associating the sound with the word. As you increase the difficulty levels more than 1 letter appears at a time so the child needs to distinguish which letter matches which sound before slashing. Great for learning the alphabet and identifying the sounds, great for hand eye co-ordination. Well done, my boy loves it!.Version: 2.0
✓ Super fun and educational appI love this app for both my own kids and for my kindergarten students. What a fun way to practise letter recognition. I only wish it had language options as I teach mainly in French. It would be a great way to perfect this app! Thanks for the fun app!.Version: 2.0
✓ Love itWe play this with our six month old when he can't quite settle down. Five minutes of watching the letters (and occasionally properly swiping them) does the trick! Works better than Fruit Ninja because the letters move slowly and you can set the game to throw only one at a time. There is a minor bug, which I think happens if you pause the game while touching two places on the screen at once - after you restart, you can't swipe..Version: 2.0
✓ Pretty cool appMy daughter has just begun her alphabet learning, and I foresee this app to be a great learning tool for her. It's pretty basic, the letter gets called out, you slice it. But what I like about all Alligator apps is that they are intuitive for children, and aren't filled with hoops for them to jump through to get to the game. This translates into a true break for mom and dad, even if it is for a couple minutes. Very happy. Now all we need is an angry letters app!.Version: 1.0
✓ Ninja ABCMay be geared for 5and under but my 17 year old with multiple learning challenges is excited about it . Letters are large and colorful. The letter movement and varied positioning fit in with her visual difficulties. The immediate repetition of errors is excellent reinforcement definitely a different and fun approach to letter recognition . Thanks for another great Alligator App..Version: 1.0
✓ Excellent appThank you for this educational and fun app. Simple for kids to operate. Great choices in settings for adults to vary letters and practise unknown letters. Children in my Year 1 class are loving it. Year 1 Teacher Australia.Version: 1.0
✓ ABC NinjaGreat app, good for preschoolers, fun and educational. Can practice both letter names, and sounds. Would be better if could turn off ALL names or phonics, instead of just letter by letter..Version: 1.0
✓ Doesn't workJust letters popping up on screen, the sound doesn't work so you can't actually play the game.Version: 3.0
✓ Great game!I love that you can turn off letters that have not yet been learned. Great little app for students learning or struggling with learning their alphabet!.Version: 2.0
✓ Love it, but...I love this app, and my students love it as well! There are a few errors with letter sounds that I correct as my students play. The /r/ should sound more like "rrr", rather than "er". As well, the /o/ should sound like "aw", instead of "uh" like the letter u. If these errors could be corrected, I would give it 5 stars!!.Version: 2.0
✓ Good practice and fun too!Good fun to play, while giving good practice in recognition of letters. I like the mixture of lower and upper case letters..Version: 1.0
✓ ABC babyABCdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxy and z.Version: 3.0
✓ Engaging & funThe kids I work with love this game, & it motivates them to want to work on their letter names and sounds. The main problem I have with it is that the pronunciations of the Q and L sounds are incorrect, so it confuses the kids. The Q should sound like KW, not just like K. It might help to have a speech-language pathologist record the sounds as they should be said (yes-I am a speech-language pathologist). Overall though, I do like the app, but would like it better if the sounds were made correctly..Version: 1.0
✓ Really good - few tweaks would be perfect!Love this - what a great, simple idea. I have tried quite a few phonics programmes today and this is the most useful for real beginners who are just learning letter sounds. I think this app must have been updated after some of the reviews here, as it is even better than the other reviews suggest. It has a British English accent and you can select to have only phonics sounds, and even to restrict the letter sounds to just a few at a time . This is brilliant because even complete beginners can use it - you can add in the letters one at a time . The tweaks I would like to see: 1. for some reason the pronunciation of the phonics sound "a" is strange and sounds like "air" rather than "a" as in "cat". It would be great to have the option of recording your own version of the sound. This would also allow you to adapt it to local accents - phonics schemes often advise teachers to stick to local accents. 2. If, in the excitement, you miss the voice telling you what sound to look out for next, there is no button to repeat it so you just have to guess or wait for the next sound. A repeat button would be good. 3. It's so exciting swiping letters that the children may not notice whether they are getting it right or not. I would like to see a bit more feedback on this in the game. If you swipe the wrong balloon it makes a nice pop. If you swipe the right balloon, it makes a zing. There isn't really the incentive to go for the zing if you are 3 and don't notice the scoreboard ! Hits and misses should be more different from each other ..Version: 1.0
✓ My 4 year old daughter use this appMy 4 year old daughter use this app daily. It is simple game but helpful for my daughter to identify letters correctly . At the end of each game , there is review of results which provide more insights.Version: 2.0
✓ The BEST helper for letter recognition!I'm a mom who's installed (and uninstalled) countless alphabet and early reader games. This one is a keeper. Playing off the enormously popular Fruit Ninja, ABC Ninja combines that same style of easy, familiar, and addictive game play with learning. My young son loves the game, and I love hearing him repeat the names of the letters and their sounds as they come into the play. His letter recognition is growing by leaps and bounds -- and I love supporting his kindergarten learning efforts in ways that are fun, rather than a drag. I highly recommend this app!.Version: 1.0
✓ Another good app...not totally customizableWhat I appreciate about the Alligator apps is the fact that content can be customized and also used in a different language because of the recording feature. This app is missing that capability....maybe in a future update? Otherwise, it works well, is engaging and has numerous settings to meet the needs of different learners..Version: 1.0
✓ Just downloaded and checked out this new appIt's a fun app for the kid in me. I didn't want to give it to my son to play with. He is enjoying it. One bug to fix: Three-finger parental tap didn't work the first few times I tried it. Reset the phone and seems to work now..Version: 1.0
✓ FabulousEasy to use, teaches perfectly, fun and free. Better than some paid apps..Version: 2.0
✓ Please ugradeWould love to use this but cannot customise anymore.Version: 3.0
✓ Educational fruit ninja with less guiltMy two year old LOVES this app and I much prefer the educational value in comparison to fruit ninja. The only wish I had to make it better is a way to know which letters to slice when on mute. Other than that it is adorable with the graphics, and provides data on what let to work on with him. It could easily be done with other concepts like numbers, words, or simple arithmetic. I look forward to new developments..Version: 1.0
✓ TeacherGreat app! I work with kindergarten students who require additional support in letter recognition, etc. Both boys and girls in my intervention groups love working with ABC Ninja. Each student gets to play the 2 minute round by himself. That's a perfect amount of time to have some hands-on time before it gets "too boring." The other students in the small group also keep attention while waiting his/her turn since it's only 2 minutes..Version: 1.0
✓ Upgrade on our phone was requiredI at first rated the app 1 star. I purchased for .99 cents and could not get any sound features to work. After sitting with it for about an hour and troubleshooting we discovered our phone needed an update. After update was finished, game worked perfectly. My son could not be happier. They play this game on their iPads at school. He isn’t the best and has told me he doesn’t understand, so I was excited to know we could practice more at at 🙂 Now we just need to figure out how to share it onto his iPad now that I have downloaded it into my phone. I do see there is family share capabilities up to 6 family members.Version: 3.0
✓ Learning made fun.Very well made and my kids love this game..Version: 2.0
✓ UsefulI bought this app for my son (7) who had an English (ESL) exam and it helped him learn the letters. He got 100%!.Version: 2.0
✓ Play and LearnAs a kindergarten teacher who wholeheartedly believes in the value of real play, I have been skeptical of the use of technology with young children. However, when my classroom was given 10 iPads as a pilot project, I was thrown headlong into the world of educational apps for children. In trying to select the best ones for use in my classroom, I subscribed to Alligator Apps and have downloaded many of them. This latest one,Letter Ninja, really hits the mark in engaging children in learning the alphabet. My only minor concerns are with z=zee instead of zed, and the serifs on the letters i.e lowercase l and t..Version: 1.0
✓ ABC ninjaThis is a great app for struggling kids/students. You can customize the app for those tricky letters that the children have difficulty retaining. 😄.Version: 1.0
✓ Has great potential.Has great potential. Only needs a few tweaks. Definitely would be good to turn all in a category off with a single swipe. Great for learning letter names and sounds.Version: 1.0
