“Way better than ST Math =D (Prodigy is amazing)”

Micah P.
5/11/23

I am a 5th grade student who has loved Prodigy since kindergarten and it has changed a lot but it is as lovable as always. It actually taught me stuff unlike other math sites, It's fun, it has a story-line, you can play with friends, you can work out your problems on screen with a drawing tool and more good stuff. The game recently got a reading mode and it's alright but i just love prodigy! -Signed a entertained student

“Kinda mid.”

11/26/23

Kinda mid. The gameplay is pretty good but overall it's not all too good. From only playing like 5 hours total you basically do all you can do, and there aren't even that many pets in the game. Not to mention you can't even get all of them with out paying a subscription. Overall, if you just want too have fun for a couple hours and you don't know what to do, then you can play this game, but don't get too attached because trust your only playing like 2 times until it's unenjoyable.

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.

BEWARE that if you sign up to this product you do not accept recurring fees extracted from your bank account. A one month paid trial experience could ultimately cost you very dearly. They have set this site up so it is very difficult to access one time payment. SO BEWARE. I have had multiple payments taken from my account without my knowledge. Also the fact that is almost impossible to contact these people after you sign up shows that their only interested in your money and not worrying about any issues relating to there service. I have tried many times but with no success.

It is SO expensive. I was one of 4 kids who hated Prodigy in my class. Basically it's all anyone played. It's just ADDICTING. Don't get me started that they copied 2 games and made them worse. It never actually forces you to learn math. It puts selling their stupid membership above any actually learning. You go into Prodigy thinking you will learn some math, but nope. Instead you're playing a corny weird game about killing animals or putting them in captivity for eternity. I never want to play this garbage again. Parents, DO. NOT. BUY.

They will autocharge you without ANY notice and don't do any refunds. A complete scam! Even when you try to cancel on the same day you're charged. STAY AWAY

Tip for consumers:
Stay away from a paid subscription. It's a TOTAL SCAM!!

To be completely honest, this game sucks. I remember in 2018-2021 this game was perfectly fine, but let's get to why it's so bad;

First off, the MEMBERSHIP. The worst thing in the game. It used to be just an add-on for people who wanted extra clothes and hair, but now everything needs a membership. Every item and thing overall requires a membership or some payment. These people are money hungry for a game that isn't even GOOD, which brings me to my second reason.

My second and last reason is how horrible they made the graphics. I don't know if it's because of the recent simplicity in logos and titles, or if it's because Prodigy developers hate their job and lives. It is probably the first reason, though. The game looks like it was designed by a fetus that just came out of the womb and is randomly typing a script to Prodigy. I know I seem as if I'm insulting Prodigy, but all of these statements are true. Please just bring back the pixels.

Thank you for reading over this, and if you can, please share this with a prodigy developer.

Just so you know, it's a game! :)

I was signed up for automatic yearly renewal of 161 dollars. My kids have not played the game for ever and when I asked for refund they just keep finding excuses. Their phone doesn't work, email comes back with shady answers and when I disputed credit card prodigy refused card company to give back the money. But they do tell me to get it from my credit card. Must be a business run from somewhere in Asia.

The old avatars in prodigy looked so much better than the new ones. It might just be my opinion, but I have also seen other online posts about how others prefer the old skins too. The old looks gave me so much nostalgia, but now? It just looks weird. Please change the skins/avatars back!

Its a light-hearted game where you fight monsters to "help" defeat the boss called "puppet master" and you can upgrade your stuff. Its quite laggy though.

I used to love playing this game it was so exciting but now it's just so horrible. First of all the graphics suck I don't know what made them think that it was okay to make the characters look like that. Second, I hate the way they made the battles I honestly don't even know what attack I'm using anymore. And Lastly, I don't know what possessed them to add reading to the game like it just ruined the whole vibe prodigy it is supposed to be a math game and they just all together ruined it.

This is an absolute trash game. I remember being introduced to this in 3rd grade in 2019. Membership was only for aesthetics. Now it's shoving it in your face every few minutes and after every single battle. They also changed the designs, which are hella ugly now. For example, the Neeks. They were a little scary to 8-year-old me, but they were still cute and interesting. Now the design is just a baby rolled up. Dreamlet used to be so cool with its rainbow wings and lizard-like body. Now it's a rat with wings. Not even the same animal classification. Now all the cool-looking designs are fat sprites. And how come I have to be a member to get more pets? Absolutely trash.

It is okay but you can't get anything without a membership and if you do get a membership you are so overpowered it is too easy. Not only that Old Prodigy so good you could catch pets without a membership, but the textures were so good and you couldn't even catch the old pets anymore Peeko was the cutest thing, and if you didn't play in 2017 too bad you couldn't get him anymore, the old things were just so good like the old battle meter and feeding your pets in battle to restore hp and now the puppet master (the main villain) was so cool and now he looks FAT dont the old pics look so nostalgiac, Prodigy, if your are seeing this BRING BACK OLD PRODIGY!

Hi. I am the user of Alex Dragonshade from Prodigy, and I have something to say about this. It's good and bad. The new looks are very nice and well done to me. But there are 3 major issues: 1: It suffers from some lag on my laptop. But the 2nd one is most critical, and that is the battle system. You can't swap pets nor yourself in battle anymore, and you have to take turns with your team, which is bad. Also... you can't eat food to heal, and the health meters are lower than they should be, and because of this, many content (such as the "become a member" video and the wizard stats) are completely outdated! And of course, you have to be a member for even simple stuff such as wearing certain shoes, and having larger houses, which makes the game kinda unfair. You should make it so that we don't have to be members for houses, evolving, nor simple clothing, but most importantly... bring the old battle system back! The picture below isn't me, but you'll get the idea.

Tip for consumers:
Don't play it. The battle system will ruin it.

Prodigy USED to be fun. Honestly, now all there is is just membership ads at every corner. Then, IF you buy it, it asks you to buy Level Up or Ultimate. Then vs now, Then is an obvious win.

Tip for consumers:
hack the freaking membership. Its quite easy actually.

I LOVE prodigy so much and i've been playing since I was in 2nd grade! Abigail Gearleader is my wizard's name. It contains wizards and battling but the battling isn't bad. When you defeat a monster (They are cute monsters) they just run away. The only advertisement is a membership. It pushes way to hard! You can only rescue 10 pets and you can't buy, wear, or use specific things. But overall... I THINK ITS GREAT!

I was so exited to play prodigy today, but one thing that they changed was unforgivable they changed the look and the battle. I would give 0 stars if possible this game is so boring now. Don't bother playing the game at all anymore.

Everything requires membership. Getting pets and some accessories requires members. My kid get disappointed when they can't get a pet.
