Factor Samurai - Multiply and Divide your way to Times Tables Mastery

I think that this app is great because it helps you with your factors and it's also a fun way to practice maths facts. It's a good way to memorise your factors and it the game gets more challenging as the player gets better. I also really like this game because it is really similar to the game called Fruit Ninja which everyone loves. It's game also doesn't take long to download which is convenient. The only bad thing about this app is that it isn't good for kids who haven't learnt about multiplication and division.

He very quickly learned which ones were prime numbers and which weren't and he loved playing it over and over, so great for re-inforcing the learning.

A superb piece of work - fun, educational, with great user experience - top marks

Does not “teach” multiplication or division… it just throws numbers at you that your supposed to know if they are divisible or not by the number shown.. not appropriate or helpful for 3rd graders struggling to learn multiplication.

Other than that addictive!

This app is amazing. So many apps are just flash cards with a theme but this is different. Kids also get familiar with recognizing prime numbers quickly and just how composite some numbers are. I REALLY wish I could increase the size of the numbers to 100 and beyond though. I would pay to upgrade even!

I experienced a couple glitches, but love the game otherwise.

Fun game teaches Prime numbers, division and multiplication while being challenging and entertaining. Draws you in and keeps you coming back for more trying to beat your score.

This app has Samurais in it which makes it intrinsically sweet and worth 5 stars by itself, but once my child tried it, that's when the magic happened. It’s addicting and fun to play, and feels more like a video game than a math lesson. The artwork is also appealing, the music adds to the intensity with incredibly satisfying swiping sounds (ah the splat of a divisible number), and I liked being able to get new swords and faster number tosses as we progressed in the game. A great way for children to learn, or for an adult to dust up on, some fundamental math skills. Thank you, Factor Samurai, my child and I are now Times Table geniuses!

It would be even better if it didn't use racial stereotypes as it's theme. This reinforces negative tropes. Too bad.
