Pros and cons of The Grading Game app for iPhone and iPad
The Grading Game app good for
If you enjoy the written word written well, and errors drive you batty-- failing these students ought to help release tension and frustration! If nothing else it may improve your grammatical memory file, the one we flushed right after leaving school. A+ game!
I wish there was an option or part of the game where you arent timed.
For the minefield setting, there isnt enough time to possibly find 18 mistakes in 30 seconds. Also some of the grammar that is considered incorrect isnt obvious. For example, "based off" is considered incorrect but that phrase is commonly used in English vernacular so its hard to see that its incorrect in such a short amount of time
This game is a gem. Easy to pick up and play while also testing your grammar, spelling, and usage skills. The submitted papers have their own charm, and the errors you need to spot will ring true to anyone who has ever proofed, edited, and/or graded essays.
I really like this game. Its a lot of fun and addicting! Recommended!
Great for grammar lovers and English learners alike! Tons of practice rounds and career challenges!
Some bad moments
Excellent game, but constant cloying requests for a review on an app I paid money for wears thin quickly.
Game was great until now....its frozen on the master page when Im only on the junior level...it wont let me swipe to a new page but it allows me to play the quick play round...quite a disappointment
I love this game, there are just some features that could be useful. Please continue to add improvements!
This game is great except for the time issue. Im a fast reader but I still dont have enough time to find every mistake. Maybe instead of a countdown timer, it could have a stopwatch type timer that keeps track of how fast you find all the mistakes, and you could try to keep beating your own time or times of other people.
Its fun, but the game would be more engaging if the player is rewarded with additional time for accurately finding a mistake.
It would make the gameplay more dynamic IMO.
Love playing this game, but its a little buggy, for example, losing points for not capitalizing numbers... Hope they fix these bugs soon
