Of all the games, I loved the Numbers game. I can't think about a better way to teach kids addition and subtraction and that too at a mental math level. Osmo team has figured out a way to make the kids relate addition to "bring units together" and subtraction to "separate out units". That's precisely what it is and since the idea is hit at such a basic level, kids are easily able to grasp the concepts. I would highly recommend all parents to play these games along with the kids and gently let them understand that the things they are doing in Numbers game is nothing but the "boring" addition and subtraction they learn at their school. I have seen this really motivating my daughter who has now started using the mental calculation idea back at school while doing the same. In my opinion, this the best way to derive unbelievable value out of this product. You just need to do it a couple of times, your child will take it up from there. Similarly, found the Words game a good way to improve spellings and vocabulary. Osmo has lot more libraries on their My Osmo portal. Make sure you sign up while doing registration and download these libraries.
Next your kid will be able to play the games.
They are incredibly complicated and confusing.
You'd be better off buying a regular $5 app. This thing is too complicated for young kids to enjoy, and too simple for older kids. Biggest waste of money I have spent on Amazon.
-UPDATE- 2 days later my kids have been able to use this by getting the individual apps for each activity, but still can't use the main Osmo app. The included pen for the princess drawing requires pressing so hard to make a dark enough line for Osmo to recognize that it broke during the first exercise. Abundant tears. My kids do like the activities they've been able to do, so I'm upping the rating to 3 stars. This product is a fantastic idea that just doesn't get it quite right.
The base is awesome with the extendable legs. When testing the letters, numbers and tangrams out while I set up a new kindle fire 7 all the games worked well. So far the games recognized the pieces well. We have issues sometimes when using them with the iPad version. I really feel so far it works better than with the iPad.
I look forward to the additional osmo games to come out for the fire so we can switch all our osmo game play to utilizing just the kindle fire.
The letters, numbers, and tangram pieces come in small stackable plastic boxes. Sometimes the lids stick a little when trying to get them off.
With this genius kit you can play the numbers, letters and tangram games but you can also use paper or dry erase board to play the monster, Newton and masterpiece games.

My daughter really likes the tangrams - they have levels that get more difficult as it goes along.
The number game is pretty fun too but perhaps a little too easy for my 9 year old. But when we had the original set at age 5, I had her play with it for 10min everyday and I found she gained more confidence with addition and substraxtion. Plus she never complained playing with it (compared to practicing math in a traditional workbook)
I’d high recommend getting this kit starting age 4 or 5. But probably becomes too easy after age 8. If your child is younger, I’d recommend the junior kit!!

The stand is quite big, so it's not as compact as the iPad version, but it works smoothly. You need to work on a plain surface to avoid confusing the tech. It's helpful to have dry wipe board in order to play the Monster drawing game without wasting loads of paper. Given the price, this should really be provided.
The Osmo device itself isn't battery-operated, so you only need to worry about charging the tablet, which you will do a lot as the kids have loved playing this so much!
Set up is pretty straightforward.
1. Create an online profile on the website.
2. Download the apps for the games on your tablet. It's a bit silly that it's a separate app download for each game, rather than a single app as a central loading point, but not a big deal.
3. Then launch each game on the tablet and begin playing.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 17, 2019
The games do lack variety though they seem to have different difficulty levels. I suspect ours might be faulty as well. For instance when my daughter plays words it constantly fails to capture the letters in front of it even if we try to move them after a bit which means her "opponent " takes its turn as well as the point and she looses the game most of the time. For 5 years old it is very frustrating and unfair especially because she does get the letters right. The drawing game is absolute disaster.
And we just missed the return/exchange date.
I guess you won't know if you like it until you try it, but I personally will not be getting any other games for this device, don't think it's worth it.
Worst still it was not advertised that this needed an adapter for 8 - 10th generation Fire tablets and that this was not included in the set. We have no looked to see if we can get this separately but it is out of stock and has been for weeks. This has left us with a set we're unable to use for the foreseeable future.
Far from impressed!
