This game is not meant for extended game play. It was fun for 3 mins its the same thing over and over again. Waste of time and money. And I like math.

Sums Stacker is a "Math Doodles" challenge that provides plenty of addition and subtraction practice, within a recreational math setting. The mathematical puzzle allows users to play with different representations of numbers, while developing their number sense to create strategies to help them solve problems. There are two modes of play, solve and race, and two difficulty levels.
THE PUZZLE: Numerals are piled into three stacks. Each stack is randomly assigned a target sum. Move numerals and sets of numerals around with the tip of your finger from stack to stack until the sums of each stack equal the target sums represented at the bottom of the screen. Once the stacks match the sums, the screen clears and you get another challenge. The numbers are represented in eight ways that vary in their level of abstraction: preschoolers might start with the fingers, dice or ringlets, because they can be easily counted, while older children or adults can find a challenge with coins, Roman numerals, or the word spelled in Spanish.
VALUE REPRESENTATION OPTIONS:
- Dice
- Fingers
- Hole Tiles
- Ten Frames
- Tally Marks
- Spanish Tally Marks
- Numerals
- Roman Numerals
- Chinese Numbers
- Arabic Numbers
- Gurmukhi Numbers
- Hebrew Numbers
- Hindi Numbers
- Binary Numbers
- Braille
- English Words
- Spanish Words
- Math Prefixes
- Polygons
- US Coins
- US Dollars
- Area Fractions
- Bar Fractions
- Fractions
- Random Design
SOLVE MODE: Strategically solve five random sets in the fewest number of moves. Receive a smiley face for each puzzle solved.
INFINITY MODE: Allows the user to play as long as they wish.
RACE MODE: Rack up as many points as you can solving puzzles, before time runs out. The timer is represented by a tab of paper that works its way around the edge of the screen.
EASY MODE: All three target sums are shown.
HARD MODE: To make things a little bit harder, one of the target sums is left as an unknown.
MATH GOALS:
- Number & Operations
- Number Sense
- Addition
- Subtraction
- Problem Solving
- Mathematical Reasoning
- Math Enjoyment

"This approach to addition and subtraction is much more engaging than flash cards."
"This game is extremely well designed and executed."
"The proof is in the pudding so the fact that my kids chose to play this game so much speaks to its enormous value."
"I Like the fact that they are problem solving and thinking mathematically while practicing basic math facts."
"Although this game is geared toward kids, I often find myself playing it while commuting on public transit as it is challenging, addictive, and can be played in short sessions."

Its not fun
great
I love math so I think this is great.
Lame!!!
Repetative, basic, boring!!!! Good for a first or second grader who might need to practice math facts. Not a puzzle game for grown up people.
Great Kids Game!
This game is extremely well designed and executed. My four year old and my six year old absolutely love it! The game has taught them basic roman numerals, Spanish numbers and English numbers spelled out, etc as well as providing an opportunity to practice their math and logic skills. The proof is in the pudding so the fact that my kids chose to play this game so much speaks to its enormous value.
Needs score tracking
This is a fun mindbender, but with no sort of score tracking or comparison to other players, you dont get a feel for how well youre doing. Thats a major part of the attraction for such games, so i hope we see this in a future update.
A quality math experience for kids.
Don tell your kids, but, Sums Stacker is a great educational activity for teaching and reinforcing elementary math skills. It is my experience however kids will be attracted to the challenge of the gameplay and whimsy of the design and not realize that they are solving math problems. Its is basic enough to pick up on quickly, but offer enough variety to keep it interesting. Although this game is geared towards kids, I often find myself playing it while commuting on public transit as it is challenging, addictive, and can be played in short sessions.
Excellent App !!!!
Great way to help kids learn !! I had a problem getting it on my ipod touch ..... I clicked support and got a super fast response about updating my Itunes and that was it .... Now it works great and my daughter loves it !! I highly recommend this app !!
