Here’s what our customers have to say about LogicCity Jr :
“My eight year old son loves this
game. It has quickly become one of his favorite and most used apps on our iPad.
What’s great is that this game actually helps kids develop thinking skills, instead of just playing mindless games or watching mindless shows …
My son has really improved his critical thinking skills and his teacher in school asked what has gotten him thinking more. I told her about this app and she was pleasantly surprised.”

For our very young users, the puzzles develop very useful problem solving skills to an advanced level without needing to get into any complicated formulas – just pure logic, and deduction. As parents, it’s nice when you don’t have to push your kids to do them, they naturally enjoy playing with them.
For adult puzzle lovers, it’s just fun to solve them. It’s a nice break when you want to put your feet up but keep your mind engaged or do something different from everyday life. You can jump to the later levels faster if you like, no unlocking necessary.
We believe that solving logic puzzles is a great way to create a love of learning math and science :
- Solving problems builds self-esteem, independent thinking and concentration.
- People who love STEM fields have played a lot with puzzles in their childhood
- Problem solving skills are so useful in modern well paid analytical jobs from engineers to architects to management professionals to bankers to scientists …
- Once kids learn to think logically, maths is easier and more fun, and makes conceptual sense.
- Enables each child to learn at her/his own pace, enhancing her/his starting ability
- Because children are capable of learning so much when given a chance. We’ve found that several children will start solving these puzzles more easily than adults
In our tests with children age 7+, they loved solving these puzzles. They’re simple in concept and easy to learn, and then gradually get really challenging making them all the more fun !
