My 6 year old finished the first version, so we went and bought dragonbox+. a bit disappointed to find the same set of problems, with some additional bonus stuff. Was expecting an an entirely new set, could have saved myself a few bucks and just got db+.
that being said, an amazingly effective game. after she finishes the bonus problems, i'll be showing her how to work them on paper.
- j05h 14y agoI've had my 7yr old working them on the white board. He had a blast with it. Has all 600 stars now and would probably play more. We need more imaginative games like this!
- mdc 14y agoWhen I bought the game, the descriptions of the two version were pretty clear that db+ was the same levels as db but with more bonus levels. Maybe they've updated that since you bought. I got db+ and was happy to see that the bonus levels progressed from symbols to letters/numbers so the last levels looked exactly like the algebra my kids will see in school. I think the game did an excellent job transitioning from the early levels that looked like many other kinds of puzzle/pattern games but evolved the symbols into more typical algebra equations in a way the kids barely notice but suddenly they're doing equations just like their math class. Very well designed IMO.
- sabat 14y agoThanks for this report. My kid loves math, and so I bet he'll love this (he's six as well).
