Description
iGevalt is a 3D dreidel simulator for Hanukkah.
A dreidel is a four-sided spinning top, played with during the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah (also spelled Chanukkah, Chanukah, and Hanukah). Each side of the dreidel has a letter of the Hebrew alphabet:
נ (Nun)
ג (Gimel)
ה (Hei)
ש (Shin)
Together, these form the acronym for
"נס גדול היה שם" (Nes Gadol Haya Sham). This translates to "a great miracle happened there".
These letters also form a mnemonic for the rules of the game played with a dreidel: Nun stands for the Yiddish word nite ("nothing"), Hei stands for halb ("half"), Gimel for gants ("all"), and Shin for shteln ("put").
Dreidel in Yiddish is written as
דרײדל
or using Roman characters: dreydl
This app is a simple simulator of the dreidel itself. You can spin the dreidel with a swipe of your finger, or by using two fingers and "spinning" it. When it lands, a popup will appear that shows you what you got and what to do when you're playing the game. There are real sounds of kids playing right along with you!
Happy Chanukah and have some fun!

Ratings and Reviews
Not that great
Should keep score for multiple players.
Awesome
You wouldn't think so, but this was probably the best dollar I have spent in awhile! My kids made me buy it, because they had "studied" hannukah in school. Wouldn't you know... They all love the sounds this little app makes. It is the favorite app of our 11 month old son, and the 4 and 6 year old boys can't stop spinning the dreidel either!
For adults? Probably not worth the buck, but if you need to amuse a kid, this will last longer than you would expect!
Doesn't work
I bought this game to play with my students. I was not able to find a dreidel at a store, so I was excited to find an app version. I went to play with my students, and the app would not load. The app appeared to download just fine, but when you open it, it says loading and you are not able to play the game. Very disappointed.
