I'm so excited to see this finally available on Kindle Fire/Android. We've played with it for months on the iPad and have been hoping to see it on Android. My two year old is obsessed with this game, as he loves moving the little monster letters. He's two years old and can now identify all 26 letters and some of their sounds. My 5 year old is using it to increase her vocabulary. I love when she uses some of the more obscure words here.
Basically, the game is like this: the kid picks a word, then drags the letters to the letters' places in the word, like a simple puzzle. Each letter is a monster/critter, and when picked up, makes the sound of the letter ("rrrr, rrrr, rrrr...") in a really fun little way. When the letter goes to the wrong place, you get an "uhoh" sound, and when it gets to the right place, it says the letter. After the word is complete, there's lots of cheering and the word is said aloud (love the voice in this, so much fun, not robotic or too stuffy). Finally, there's a short animation displaying the meaning of the word, then the voice explains what the word means in a way appropriate for a 3-7 year old to understand. There are tons of words, and they seem to add more regularly.
I can't say enough good stuff about this one. Totally worth $5. My only feedback to the company is this: it'd be awesome to see multiple levels of the game, so I could give my 2 year old simpler words to work on his budding vocabulary, and my 5 year old the bigger words for her larger vocabulary. Still, such a great app and so excited to have it!
***UPDATE***
I see a lot of people commenting on what devices they can/cannot use it on. I have a Kindle Fire HD (2012 model) and it downloaded easily with no problems, and works fine. It runs a little slower than it does on the iPad, but not too slow to frustrate my 2 year old. Usually this is just one initially launching the app. Overall, after a couple months on my Fire HD, still a 5 star app.
