I hate the game
April 11, 2023

I give this game a 1 star because it deleted all my equipment that I have been saving up for 3 years

This website is so bad, it used to be so good and I used to have so much fun playing it.
First of all, after the updates to the characters and battles, everything has just gone downhill. The characters look so stupid and babyish now, and in the battles you can miss without answering a question wrong. Also,
Next, EVERY SINGLE GODDAMN THING about Prodigy is now centred around Memberships.
1. Special clothes/wands - I try to get these and it gives me an ad saying "Members get cool stuff!"
2. Pets and epics - I am not allowed to evolve or rescue pets. When I first started the game, I got lots of crappy earth pets and if I had known that there was a limit... also it isn't fair that the members get all of the cool epics and the non-members can't
3. Chests - I know that anyone can get chests, but even then, I get member-only things inside them. It comes up with a message saying "You got a new outfit! Would you like to try it on?" And then I get an ad when I click yes (who would have thought?)
4. Members also get more "stars". Pretty much every member I've seen has been on level 100 when I've been playing for 3 years and am only on level 85! Members get to go around wearing the special member badges in front of the kids whose parents genuinely can't or have better things to spend their money on then Prodigy.
5. And the list goes on and on and on - don't even get me started on potions, the Dark Tower, and houses
Also, I can't go five seconds without getting more ads.
Thirdly, I'm in grade 7 and my brother (who also does Prodigy) is in grade 4. Both of us are getting YEAR 1 AND 2 WORK. It is so easy and I keep getting the same questions OVER AND OVER. Prodigy seems to put more work into promotion of membership than it does actual maths. It's more like a movie than a maths program.
Overall, would not recommend Prodigy unless you want to be bored to death and would sue it if I could.

Prodigy is a good app. You should give it 5/5 stars! It is like a math game so fun that your child will play every day!

PAY TO WIN
December 13, 2023

PAY TO WIN, DON'T BUY. This game is garbage cause you can't get anything without being a member and its not fun when you don't pay a high price.

Not that great.
November 29, 2022

Everyone looooooooves this game in my class, but I just don't get the hype. It's annoying that there's barely any math on there, and it's not even that good, like im in the gifted program in sixth grade and im getting 3rd grade math. Also there was once a very very simple multiplication question that my 6 year old sister could answer, and the prodigy people put the correct answer to the problem as incorrect? Appparently 9x3 does NOT equal 27, it equals 24?! I tried to email them about it, but since im not an adult, they just blocked me and said, and I quote, "Oops! We're sorry! No one's perfect, but we try! Please refrain from contacting us in the future- or purchase a membership for more glitch-free learning and cool stuff, plus" etc.So annoying how they work that into everything. Also the membership ads...UGH THEY ARE SO ANNOYING. I literally cant go more than 5 minutes without and ad for membership. I cant afford the membership and it was really annoying when they made so many areas and quests only for members. Like, i cant:
1. Buy clothes or pretty much any furniture or pets anywhere
2. Climb the dark tower
3. Get a house that isnt a literal shoebox
4. Use hairstyles, stores, buddies, and potions
5. Don't even get me STARTED on the cloud mounts and wands
The epics section really deserves it's own review.
It's so, so annoying that my wizard watch is covered wiht "this epic is coming" or "hunt for x now!"
I cant do anything epic related, and yet my friends who can afford memberships have all the epics and cool stuff.
All in all, i reallly dont like this game. Its a waste of time, you dont learn anything, and they are very aggressive with ads and expensive.
