image50006115.jpgDon’t let the educational nature of this $0.99 game fool you. It is both addictive and fun to play. The premise is simple. Correctly answer questions about the 50 US states. You are given the states if you are correct. Stack them until you reach the designated height and you will be rewarded with a state to put on your map.

This is much easier said than done though. Odd shaped states are difficult to stack. And small states require more answers to get your stack built. Stacking is facilitated by being able to rotate and set the position and height of the state before trying to drop it on your stack though. If the gravity and physics effects are with you, the pieces won’t fall off and be wasted.

Questions about the states include recognizing their shape, what borders them, their capital, and so forth. If you guess wrong, the correct answer is displayed. This means that even if you loose, you still learn something.

I was surprised at how much I enjoyed this little game. If you or your children have an interest in US geography or are taking it in school, I highly recommend this entertaining learning tool.
