Ratings and Reviews
Great app, now what?
Completed the mission now it's just stuck on the final screen. Is that all there is? Can we at least start again? And there was a bunch of animals on the map which we couldn't access, are they unlocked somehow? Overall a great idea , you just need to fill a few gaping holes in the UI (or make things a little more user friendly)
Pretty good
My 9 year old daughter says:
It was really interesting. I learned some new facts and found new animals I didn't know about. I was a bit disappointed when I finished the report and now I can't do any more.
Mum says: the app is now saying mission complete, despite changing the settings to clear user data. Hopefully it will reset so the other kids can have a go!
Love animals
My son loved this, but over too soon he said! Needs more zoo animals
