Super Fun
An outstanding Shut the Box type game, with wonderful retro graphics and a great pirate theme. Everything in the game looks, sounds, and plays great. I have really enjoyed this game, and hope it does well here on iTunes.

Good fun game very fun
Waste of a dollar.
Lame! Do not buy. Waste of money.
Fun Math Game
My god kids enjoy the game, even though one is still a little young for it. So why only 4 stars? Because I cannot play the game with them or help the younger god kid with the game because I get "motion" sick from the animation at the top of the screen. My husband plays/helps them so they get to enjoy the game.
