Machines CrashingSame thing happening as Jamie3D. App continues to crash after multiple uninstall and install attempts. Sad my son loved it when it worked..Version: 1.0.8

Crashes Arielle the coolestOK this app keeps crashing.Version: 1.0.8

Great but,....Wonderful experience but is kind of short,...needs more modules.Version: 1.0.1

Not what I was expectingThought this would be a creative building game - instead it's a very limited and controlled environment. Don't expect my kids will play with this one much :/.Version: 1.0.2

It works, but it doesn’t teach anythingI thought it might be a nice way for students to review simple machines, but I can’t ask them all to pay $2.99..Version: 1.0.8

TerribleThought this game would be fun . But really there is no thought to making this game..Version: 1.0.1

I don’t like itI can’t really build my own creations.Version: 1.0.8

BadI thought you made your own machine but you can't, waste of money..Version: 1.0.2

No vale la penaNo gastes el dolar en esto..no es bueno.Version: 1.0.2

PointlessI don't understand the point of this "game". Don't waste your money, it's rubbish..Version: 1.0.5

Got boring real quickLasted about 30 minutes until my 6 yr old wanted to do more..Version: 1.0.1

Simple machinesThis game is not worth the money, there are only five mini games and they are all quite boring. Maybe they should bring it back to £0.76.Version: 1.0.5

Not worth itNot a lot to do in the game. Pretty much everything is tap this or drag that. No real interaction..Version: 1.0.8

DisappointingThe only lessons anybody is going to learn from this game are about the App Store and marketing..Version: 1.0.6

Camera?Why does this app want to access my camera?.Version: 1.0.1

???????????????IT CRASHES EVERY TIME IT LOADS!!! I'M ON IPHONE 6! WANT REFUND BADLY😡😡😡😡😡.Version: 1.0.1

Not worth itThis app is not worth your money. It comes without explanation and does so very little that it is barely worth four minutes of anyone's time. I would be ashamed to show this to my kids as they would be instantly bored and get nothing from it..Version: 1.0.3

DO NOT BUY!Biggest waste of money in the world, I will rate 5 if you add more levels and add a sandbox mode.Version: 1.0.1

Not a gameThought it would be. Oops..Version: 1.0.2

YawnThe concept is sound, but it is not worth the price. The activities are half-baked. They illustrate the simple machines, but not in a way that leads to understanding any more than random chance would. I would not recommend this to anyone of any age..Version: 1.0.1

Awful controls. Hardly any content.Controls are abismal. It is utterly repetitive. Very disappointing. A waste of money..Version: 1.0.2

Same⬆️I bought this game expecting a creative building game should've read more into it.Version: 1.0.1

SimplisticBought this app for my grandchildren .It did not hold the attention of any of them .it is absolute tripe..Version: 1.0.1

MrsEA big waste of money!!.Version: 1.0.2

Just doesn't do muchNo instructions, so we kept going thinking it must do something but it doesn't. I can see the engineering principles but because there were no instructions and nothing to achieve it was just Disappointing..Version: 1.0.5

Major disappointmentI don't care how cheap it is, it is a paid app which claims to achieve things it does not. Shame, you can, rotate your finger to make a man ride a bike (no other control), wind a winch up and down with your finger to pick up one of three objects, change the height of an aquarium tank by stroking... All rather lame with very little connection to physics nor entertainment. Pants. Hahaha, I just noticed I paid to write this review (I bought this terrible app) . I'm clearly a bit bored. Btw this company does make other apps that are excellent but clearly their brand ethos doesn't stretch to all of them....Version: 1.0.5

No thanksIt just didn't work out..Version: 1.0.2

GhSheets.Version: 1.0.1

Doesn’t workWe bought this game a year or so ago. It was my son’s favorite app. But a couple months ago, it suddenly stopped working. You couldn’t load a profile or make a new one - the game would just crash. We’ve uninstalled and reinstalled it and that didn’t help. Reached out to the developers and they said to try an uninstall and reinstall and when I said that I’ve tried that, they offered a refund, which was kind of them. But since there doesn’t seem to be any recent reviews for this app, I thought I should let you know that if you buy it, there’s a good chance it just won’t work..Version: 1.0.8

Get so funIt was ok.Version: 1.0.2

Creative mode pleaseAdd a creative mode to build and do fun stuff it will be more interesting.Version: 1.0.1

NOT GOOD boring do not buy this gameSo boring you can’t even build in this game.Version: 1.0.8

High price for bundleIts ok. Price is high for the bundle and in app purchases cannot be shared with family sharing..Version: 1.0.8

Not what it claims to be. Don't buy.I agree with the other reviews, wishing I'd read them before buying on the strength of the Human Body app. Terrible as physics toys: a few bits of real wood, string & other bits will be much better. Needs a lot of work if it's ever to live up to its claims. And I mean a lot..Version: 1.0.5

Not enough teaching, boringMy 5 yr old and 8 yr old got bored after a few minutes. I thought this would have more info to support learning, but there's not much explaining. I'd take my $.99 back..Version: 1.0.5

Wish it was betterSo I bought this app for the 3 dollars Hoping it would be like my STEM class I took this year, buttttt......... It's not. I wish this app was better and hoped it was like this pictures but when I bought it I got bored after 2 minutes. I wish I could get a refund for it..Version: 1.0.1

Beautiful Graphics, But Not For EveryoneThe graphics in this app are astonishing. I loved the way everything looked and tinkering around with the machines for some time. But I found myself bored after some time playing. There isn't any concrete goal and things start to become repetitive after a while. This is a nice app, but I wouldn't spend $2.99 for it..Version: 1.0.2

Hate this appThis app is so dumb all you can do is watch a few fish dive in the tank don't waste your time go buy simple machines so much better😩🙁☹️😡😡😣.Version: 1.0.5

Can't really innovate on itThere's no possibility to mix and go beyond the basics. It gets really boring after a few minutes..Version: 1.0.2

What an utter disappointment...I love Tinybop's 'The Human Body' app and I enjoy 'Robot Factory' and 'Homes'. I didn't like 'Plants' much but I could see other people enjoying it. This app however... As soon as I saw this app on the front page of the App Store, I quickly scanned through the images (which looked great) and wanted to read the review but there weren't any. So, thinking about the other Tinybop apps that I like, I bought it without a second thought. Bad idea. I opened the app up and felt a jolt of excitement as the opening animation started. It looked great. The presentation and style that Tinybop has is excellent and it is great in terms of presentation quality. I made my profile and began the game. I was shown a screen with 6 different options. "Not a lot" I thought. I chose the picture with the screw on it. I was then presented with three tanks of fish... What do you do? You move each fish tank up and down. You can add more fish and... That's about it. Very boring. It looks nice but I payed for a game, not a picture I tried the rest of them and was met with the same result. Boredom. I'm not stingy nor cheap but this app was such a disappointment that I genuinely felt angry for wasting a mere £2.49. Well done Tinybop. For the people reading this, wondering if they should buy this app. Don't. You can get more fun from raking leaves in the rain. This app looks pretty and makes you think it's interactive and fun but it isn't. They wasted so much time creating this app because the art looks fabulous but the gameplay just isn't there. Please don't buy this and support such laziness from this company. They know how to make an app interactive and interesting. Don't allow them to become lazy..Version: 1.0.2

I spent $2.99 for this?There are only 6 things to do. You can play with this for like 5 mins and then it's just boring and redundant. Requesting a refund.....Version: 1.0.1

Not much to itNo real goal, no challenge, even for a 7yo kid. Exhausted after 10-15 minutes..Version: 1.0.2

Cute but pointlessMy kids like the graphics of this game for a couple of minutes but the actions are just repetitive. They have no real goal or point to trying to make the machines work. Yes it illustrates how they work but if kids don't have a reason to operate them, they won't continue. Riding a bike endlessly to nowhere? Knocking down a building that simultaneously rebuilds itself? Give kids a goal. I am so disappointed that I spent $2.99 on this!! How can I get a refund???.Version: 1.0.1

RubbishBiggest waste of money I have ever spent. No point to the game. This I not worth your money!!.Version: 1.0.1

CrashedThe application crashed It won't open.Version: 1.0.4

Just downloadedI need to play with it more but I'm not sure what it is I'm supposed to be learning? Graphics are nice, however.....Version: 1.0.8

Crashes immediatelyNewest iPad on the newest software. Can’t get past the create your icon screen..Version: 1.0.8
