Analogy – iPhone and iPad App Review

Analogy ($0.99)

Version – 1.0.0

Review – “Train your brain with Analogy for iOS!”


This is a great example of an app that is not only fun, but educational as well! Analogy is an app that plays full screen on both the iPhone and iPad platform, and is designed to stretch your child’s brain as they play! You’ll find that this app will teach problem solving, analytical thinking, and creativity, and at the same time entertain!


To get started all you have to do is touch the “Unlock to start game” button in the lower right side of the screen. The first time you open the app you’ll be greeted by some basic rules that explain how to play. You can turn off this introduction in the settings menu at any time, or leave it on for future reference.


The game itself is set up so that you are given an example of two items that are somehow related, and then one more item with 4 options as to which one it is related to. For example, one of the puzzles in the game is “feather: duck :: fur : ?” The options for the answer are “pig,” “bear,” “rat,” and “swan.” The correct answer in this case is bear because that’s what a bear has on its outside, while feathers is what a duck has!


In the upper right corner of the game screen is a timer that shows how long you’ve been playing the current round. Just to the left of that is your current score/how many questions there are in the current round. Each time you get a correct answer you hear a confirmation from the app telling you that you did a good job. These seemed nice at first, but they do get old quickly. They can be easily turned off while playing the game by touching the speaker icon in the upper left corner of the screen.


That’s the basics of how to play the game. Back at the main menu screen you have four buttons along the bottom. the three on the right will take you to more information on other games by the same developer, to the email app to contact the developer about promotion alerts or to tell friends about the app.


On the far left side of the menus a settings button. From here you have a variety of different settings from whether to show the game rules at the beginning, to the difficulty level and numb of questions. At the very bottom of the screen you can also choose whether the game will use “Pattern” questions or “word” questions.


The difficulty levels in this app are definitely well-suited for children. With that said, this app could easily have been made more appealing to all ages if the developers had included a higher difficulty level and some form of a high score list. I actually was a little surprised that there is no form of high score list currently.


All things considered, this app does very well for its intended audience. So while it may be a couple of features short of being an app for all ages, for $0.99 this is a great way to help your child’s mind develop! If you’re still thinking about it, don’t wait any longer.
