Quizzes can be fun but repetitive; some factual errors.

Is It Any Good?
GEOMASTER has some potential, but still needs to get a few facts straight! The real challenge is just that there are other great geography apps (with much better maps) in the App Store. Still, this is a good way to introduce kids to world countries and flags, since the feedback mechanism is really strong, so there are opportunities for learning within the quizzes.
Being able to connect through Facebook makes the game best for older kids, but teens may get bored by the repetitive pace of the game. More significantly, the map is not at a high enough resolution for players to always see or tap the precise location, which can get frustrating. Overall, an OK app to enjoy with a grain of salt.

Did we miss something on diversity?
Research shows a connection between kids' healthy self-esteem and positive portrayals in media. That's why we've added a new "Diverse Representations" section to our reviews that will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. You can help us help kids by suggesting a diversity update.
