What parents need to know

Parents need to know that All-in-1 Logic Gamebox is an engaging puzzle app which includes seven different games. Apart from a little bit of blood in the Paratroopers game (if you fail to open their parachutes in time, they smash to the ground and a small pool of red is shown), the rest of the apps are clean fun and could be appropriate for children. The levels get progressively more challenging and later levels will be difficult even for adults.

  • Ease of use5
    Each of the games starts with one or two tutorial levels which show you how to play. In addition, there is a help section for each game if further help is needed.
  • Violence2
    In the Paratroopers game, soldiers fall from the sky and the player tries to open their parachutes in time—otherwise, they hit the ground and turn into a small puddle of blood.This is cartoony not realistic.
  • Sex0

  • Consumerism1
    On the About page, there is a link to review the app on the iTunes store which takes you out of the app. There's also a link which goes to developer's Twitter page.
  • Drinking, drugs, & smoking0

  • Privacy & safety4
    Only minor privacy concerns. Scores and current progress can be posted to Facebook and Twitter but it does require logging in. There is also a button to challenge a friend, which sends an email showing your current score; the email can be edited and could be sent to anyone in your address book or to an inputted email address.

Is it any good?

 

ALL-IN-1 LOGIC GAMEBOX has a wealth of puzzles to challenge kids and adults. With seven games included (Paratroopers, Telescope, Labyrinth, Parking Lot, Liquid Measure, Flip It, and Arithmetic) and over 1,000 different levels, it will keep players occupied for a long time. The graphics are fantastic and the games are all presented with simple tutorials so it's easy to get started. However, the harder levels can be extremely challenging so even adults will enjoy it.

Our favorites are Telescope and Liquid Measure. Telescope presents you with several telescoping pipes of varying lengths where tapping on one extends or contracts it, pushing or pulling a silver marble along with it. The goal is to get the ball to the hole using these pipes, which can get extremely tricky. In Liquid Measure, you try to get the liquid from the various pipes into the properly-sized containers by arranging the containers and pipes. Because many levels begin with some pipes, containers, and obstacles already in place, you have to work around them to solve the puzzles. Some of the games are easier than others, but as a whole the All-in-1 Logic Gamebox is a bargain for any puzzle lover.
