What's It About?

LEAPFROG EXPLORER LEARNING GAME: ROLY POLY 2: TREASURE HUNT invites kids to help the Roly Poly family prepare for a picnic by collecting food. Kids play as either blue Paul or pink Polley as they tilt their device through a maze-like scene to collect as many berries as possible within the time limit. They also collect flags and other food (bacon, sushi, a sandwich) by answering math questions. There are a variety of obstacles to watch out for, including frogs, bumper leafs (think pinball), and water traps. Kids can roll near a lake, at the circus, and on a mini-golf course. Parents can customize the experience using the LeapFrog Connect application and select the math facts to test.

Is It Any Good?

Kids say ( 1 ):

LeapFrog Explorer Learning Game: Roly Poly 2: Treasure Hunt is a cute LeapPad game. There isn't much of a plot, but kids will enjoy rolling their Roly Poly around to collect as much food as they can. The levels have plenty of variation and kids can replay them to try to beat their previous scores. It's a fun way for kids to practice their math skills, although kids spend more time rolling through the maze than solving actual math problems. With 36 levels to beat and the customizable math facts, Roly Poly 2 gets a big thumbs up.
