"Engaging and fun"
My granddaughter is struggling with some aspects of division and multiplication. It took her a little bit to get the hang of the game but once she caught on she loves it. We use it as a reward for her accomplishing homework, chores, etc., and she can't wait to play it!! If her enjoyment of the game translates into learning the concepts she has to use to advance levels, this will be a winner.

"Good Mix of Math and Games"
My 8-year old son loves playing this Math Blaster and the repetition of times tables and divisions helps him learn. For my taste there is a lot of simple game playing relative to calculating, so if you are looking for a game-based version of Kumon, this is not it. But for reinforcing math skills your child is acquiring the old-fashioned way, in a game environment boys love, Math Blaster is fine.

"Not enough Math - - too much game"
I bought this thinking it was an updated version of a Mathblaster computer game my older kids had years ago. It was a good review tool and they liked it. But this new Mathblaster is nothing like the old one. It is trying so hard to appeal to modern kids who play video games that there is too much gaming with very little math thrown in. I'm not happy with it at all since it's not really reviewing much math. My 9yo son sort of likes it because it's basically just another video game. But he doesn't really play it that much.

"My 2nd grader loves it - great math practice!"
I'm not sure why the others are complaining - my second grader likes playing it, and it's a great way to practice math and build speed while having fun. Especially since in his school they have timed tests that force them to be fast or lose points - this is a great way to build that speed up to the automatic level. I think this is way better than boring flash cards and can see my son's addition and subtraction speeds improving almost immediately. The music and challenge level are really no different than many other video games out there, however this game helps improve math skills. It's a no brainer in my book.

"Just above average!"
All in all not a bad game. My daughter is 6 years old and she loves the Math Blaster at school...which is an older version. I have XP and this was the newest version so I bought it. There is no support for a gamepad or joystick...only keyboard supported which has my daughter not playing it much, so if your child does not like the keyboard do NOT buy this game!!

""Math Blaster Master your keyboard up, down, left, right, space bar keys !!"", I wish i could go lower than 0 stars in rating this item. In this game, getting the right numbers to add (build the answer portion of the game) is 500 times harder than knowing the right answer. Just imagine your son already knowing the answer to 50 x 6 = 300 after 1 second but
has to stay at that level for more than 5 minutes to build the answer getting the addends to get 300 !!! It is a crazy educational game idea and a waste of your kid's time. It's a total waste of your money. Do not buy the download version too from the KA (Knowledge Advenuture) site, because it has a bug (Windows Vista) and you have to redownload again to re-install.

In fairness to KA, i am impressed with Math Blaster ages 9 - 12 and pre-algebra. This version of Math Blaster is not really that great as it claims to be .. KA to maintain their credibility in making worthwhile educational games should pull this product out of the market. Or better, offer their disappointed customers to replace their copy with another KA product ...

I recommend Math Attack by Compedia - not that fancy graphics but gives your child the math drills to really master the basic. Try also "I Love Math" by DK. The title of this game should be "Math Blaster Master your keyboard up, down, left, right, spacebar keys !!!" I still can't forgive myself for buying my son this boring game.


"There's a line at my house", The neighbor kids and my grandkids stand in line for a turn to play this game. I'd rate it as a huge sucess!

"3rd Graders love it.", I work with 3rd Grade students that are from an inner city. They enjoy this game a lot because it plays like an action game. They get to shoot things that are in their way and the game will slow down if the child needs the extra time. I have to say since the children have just recently started using this program, I can't say that it works. What I can say is that the game works on improving hand-eye coordination, mental math, and increases recall of math facts. I would recommend this game for the mere fact that it works on the previous items mentioned as well as make learning fun.

"Math Blaster: Master the Basics", I purchashed this product for my grandchildren. My granddaughter is in 4th grade and recently changed shcools to a new town. She was an "A" student in her old school, but the math program in her new school was really defeating her. Math Blaster made catching up to the advanced level of her new school easier and it is in game form. The plus to this product is that my grandson is in first grade and he loves to play the games and learn the math too. It has been a very helpful experience for both of them.

"Frustrating", Ordered this twice. Never received it through USPS. Supose that had I opted for expressed shipping I would have received it.Gave up!

However, I have used this on my previous p.c and realized that its a wonderful programme for kids. Might try to order again later.

"Math Blaster", My son 8, LOVES this game. I am sure it helps because his favorite subject is math. The game keeps him going for hours. It is very challenging and exciting. A good pick for kids who need help and who just love math problems.

"Math bomb", This CD should be priced at $5.00. The graphics will not keep your child's attention and it's pretty lame. It was a wasted purchase, I have to bribe my child to use it, because it so boring.

"Master the Basics", I bought this item for my grandson - it seemed fun to practice multiplication, etc. He actually did not want to even look at it, but absolutely loved it, after playing just once. It seems to be geared to children's minds and I think it is a clever way to get children to practice math. I can only recommend it.

"fun learning", Challenging and fun. Graphics a fair compared to the mindless flashy video games. Educational value is exellent, challenging and helps develop speed as well as accuracy. The challenge of having to think and get the right math answer in order to advance makes the games more challenging than the flashey graphic video games. If the animation was similar to the flashy video game adventures ( IE: Jak 3 or Ratchett and clank)it might make it too hard because of all the distractions and tools obtained. It might be interesting if that level of graphics and animation was worked into the game. The younger kids may be better able to intergrate a multi-tooled, multi-level, multi-directional with more mapping and varied spatial orientation than older people. My eight year old was able to gain more speed quicker on the game than I was.

"Math Blaster Startup Help", Once you decrypt the game entry point, Math Blaster is a brilliant method for teaching basic math functions (+,-,*, /). The problem with startup is the lack of guidance on how to start the game. A line or two (in the UI)explaining how to start the game (after the arithmetic tables are displayed) would be a tremendous assistance for beginners. We were disappointed with the list of +,-.*,/ tables displayed until we accidently clicked the entry point with the mouse. The user is presented an endless set of arithmetic expressions which the user must discern as valid/invalid while exploring a labyrinth of shoot-em-up and donkey-kong type choices. Perfect for a 6 year old 1st grade student !
