Most of us have had to read one or two of Shakespeare s plays in high school But the problem was that Shakespeare was the last thing we were thinking about The difficulty of language was a turn off teachers themselves were not experts in the writing either so what was the relevance to us But I think Shakespeare is better appreciated when you have accumulated more personal experience meeting people and delving into some current affairs I found Shakespeare a more pleasurable experience trying to learn it on my own free time and that is where this app really helps It has annotations for the entire Tempest play and recorded voice work So in addition to reading you get to really listen to the words and the different pronunciations Through this app it made me confident to say that although Shakespeare is difficult it does not mean that it can t be fun If you take the time and take a leap of faith with this app I promise that you will have a better appreciation of Shakespeare and create an approachable and optimistic view of classic literature                     Much needed for this generation s students of Shakespeare Frozenyogurtboy

No other Shakespeare app comes close When is the next one coming out                     The best Ipreferburlives

Words would fail even the Bard himself in praising this app It is excellent for the average reader the student the actor and the experienced Shakespeare scholar I ve used it for classes in Shakespeare preparing to act a part in the Tempest and for just plain fun Please do more like this                     Magnificent App Dsgordon

Inventive detailed app BUT I can t download Act 1 Scene 2 I ve tried numerous times without success The first scene downloaded without problem but not the second I think there s a bug lurking in there somewhere         Great when it works Karlpier

Truly brings The Bard to life on an iPad This is a tremendous effort on the part of all involved For teachers students and Shakespeare fans Please create more                     Delightful And accessible Curtis_L_D

I cannot wait for more of these There is no way to adequately express how well done this app is Five stars is not enough Thank you for this app Great job                     Very impressive Cotton.Nero

Wonderful Well done Bravo Please release more Thanks                     More please chuckteacher

Every time I sit down to read a Shakespeare play I get lost within the first 12 lines I either give up or plod on understanding about 10 of what I am reading The Tempest just became my favorite Shakespeare play because I understand it now Please do another ASAP Would pay much more                     Absolutely brilliant Keystone72

Gorgeously conceived and executed directed and acted researched and presented I echo the others who hope that more are forthcoming and soon                     Beautiful Andre Bazin

Taking Shakespeare now in my online college class and we will be reading the Tempest I wish there were more of these available sooner but I will buy everyone released going forward Excellent work                     Amazing Naskipp33

Though familiar with many of Shakespeare s works I had never read to the Tempest I am glad that this was my introduction to it I am anxiously awaiting the next play Please do it soon and make it one I haven t read yet                     Please do another ASAP JennaSullivan

This approach works best for me I get more of Shakespeare s meaning from listening to the actors voicing the lines as I read along than I do just reading the text or watching the play I like the visual groupings of characters by scenes The comments on the scenes and in other parts of the app are excellent The app uses 1 8 GB is space if everything is downloaded                     Great way to understand the play Kahalabeach

I know little of Shakespeare because his works can be very difficult to penetrate as a beginner This really gave me an interest in learning more and all the tools to do so Entertaining and interesting                     Engrossing AshtonJ

I bought the Heuristic Shakespeare The Tempest app last month and I ve used it every day since then This is the single best educational app I ve ever used Duolingo was my previous favorite The developers and the actors involved in this project have created an app that lets you hear The Tempest parse the text see images etc It s an experience with a Shakespeare text unlike anything I ve experienced before I love going to the Oregon Shakespeare Festival in the summers and I can t wait until they perform this play again because I now feel like I really understand it                     Single best educational app I ve used Enormously entertaining BillSJ

I ve often heard that Shakespeare is easier to understand in the context of a performance but never have I seen such a seamless combination of performance play notes and brilliant new visualizations that help to understand the play both in story and structure Oh and full text search would have cut the time spent writing papers by at least a quarter I m enjoying this read through of the Tempest more than even the live courses I loved when I was in school Top rate work                     I would have killed for this in high school or college StanYamane

This is a wonderful app presenting the play in a manner that preserves its character and drama but allows for greater exploration and understanding A great idea executed beautifully I can t wait for the next one                     Excellent and enjoyable tool for learning __KenC__

This is the way to do it Please do more Perhaps Twelfth Night next This is the best money I ve spent on an app                     It is wonderful UncleKirk

This is a wonderful way to experience Shakespeare The dynamic format allows you to listen to or read the text or pause to follow a theme word or character through the play I can t wait for the next app                     Fantastic CorinLa

This is the kind of high quality educational app that is desperately needed in the App Store Please support this endeavor it s worth every penny                     Keep them coming Pgs2.0

Really well done app Can t wait for more of these Having the actors available with the text is great Seems like they put some real money in to this Hope it does well Definitely worth the money                     Soooooooo Good dangergrainger

This magnificent app is a really handy tool for study and comprehension The actors don t move but you do get to see their unobscured faces It s more like a tremendous table reading after the actors have prepared themselves with A LOT of text analysis than an actual performance which is perfect because this app is about developing the means of interpretation in it s audience rather than delivering one to them There is nothing cinematic other than the occasional suggestive animation or sound effect Minimal gestures one of them really stands out in my mind as illuminative No costumes No lighting No set Just faces and a deep understanding of the lines One big plus is that words whose meanings have changed over time are spoken in a way that avoids the confusion that would ensue if you read them by yourself The app is not so much about theatrical performance It s about Shakespeare s words and the meanings AND it is undisputedly a bargain well worth the price of an expensive cup of coffee 6 bucks and it s on your pad It is absolutely delightful to watch and follow along with the words And let s face it Ian and Derick have voices like a 500 bottle of wine they keep you good company It is a bit unfair to single out those well known stars because the entire cast is so solid You could understand them all without the scrolling script but every now and then I would get curious and stop using the easily accessible notes and underlined bits in the script to go into more detail I must reiterate you are co creating with them Your imagination will be engaged it s not really like watching a performance as much as it s like crawling into the play I have yet to explore the whole thing There is a lot of extra criticism and scholarship included in the app You could spend weeks ruminating over everything that they give you Extremely useful for actors directors English literature teachers and students The only drawback might be if you don t have a good internet connection You need to be able to down load the actors for each scene and act of the play Also I was temporarily confused if the scene was actually downloading or not because the buttons were a little confusing to me Those are the only 2 things I can think of that are a little critical I love it and look forward to more This app is the best                     Indispensable for Shakespeare lovers Jggghdxdgxdgv

This amazing app offers the full text of The Tempest with potentially confusing text underlined and clickable for an explanation But it offers so much more Videos of talented actors playing each part so the spoken word further illuminates the meaning Other videos explore the play s structure and additional aspects If any app ever deserved five stars this is it Readers can choose the level of immersion and study they want to engage in I can t wait until this company produces more of Shakespeare I will collect the full lot                     The best of what apps can offer mbg1955

Imagine rap albums of the future They should look like this Reminds me of Genius a little bit but with the content created by the artist I am already looking to see where I can attend an outdoor performance of The Tempest this summer Using this tool my knowledge and appreciation for the play will be off the charts                     Profound Daanab

I had a similar white screen crash at Act 2 2 Nothing worked for me until I deleted the app and downloaded installed it again They will get that bug figured out until then re download it Really the most remarkable app I have encountered A lot of scholarship here                     Gmabestsy suggestion DHesse

This app crashes every time I open it Perhaps all the bells and whistles alarums and excursions they ve added is too much even for my iPad Pro         Crashes Dr. Drama

Anyone else have the problem I am a novice waited waited looked at white screen waited three times tried same white screen app is in here but can t open the door to kindergarten room thanks for help     Help section never appeared gmabetsy

The Arden Shakespeare is a longtime publisher of Shakespeare s plays each play bound separately with a generous amount of footnotes to describe the archaic turns of phrase as well as essays of the play s significance Many of these are in there 3rd edition by now unrivaled in their education value for decades With this first release from Heuristic Shakespeare first play of thirty seven we get the comprehensive scholarship you come to appreciate in the Arden paperback You also get video readings synced with the written verse from the best Shakespeare actors of our time original artwork and a generally beautiful user experience I can t summarize all of the supplementary material included here suffice to say when you consider that this app is 6 it is a ridiculous bargain compared to the 30 paperback I have to also recommend the equally spectacular Shakespeare s Sonnets app with similar features                     Unrivaled way to experience of Shakespeare Brandon.arnold

This is my first Shakespeare app so I have nothing to say by comparison Other reviewers are doing that well and this gets raves from those so in the know This is an excellent creation and an immersive learning experience I would highly recommend to anybody interested in Shakespeare at any level of knowledge My only disappointment is that fine actors used in this production are doing reads instead of bringing the full force of their acting talents to bear To assist in the reading of the script invaluable To bring the play to life We ll have to seek elsewhere                 Excellent and if only Kedeb13

This is pure Shakespeare goodness The video downloads take about 1 6 Gb for the full play but they are easily removed after watching I will leave them on my iPad for a while however as I plan to watch to listen to the full play a few times I look forward to the other plays Shakespeare deserves this                     well done 10.5.6.6

The app looks fabulous on my iPad Pro UI and numerous details are near perfect What s most unbelievable and fantastic is how you can learn and enjoy the play with top notch actors wonderful sound effects and stunning artwork It s worth far more than mere 6 dollars                     Marvelous Lukepku

Simply spectacular You will be pulled into this work enjoying every moment I can t wait for the next play to be produced The stated intention is to similarly treat all of the Bard s plays a tall order indeed                     An heuristic production of The Tempest Wmhjrmd

A stunning work showcased and explored the way it should be Simply fantastic acting and integration of app design with deep scholarship Looking forward to King Lear and all the rest Fabulous job                     A perfect marriage of art and technology guslov

Simply a must have for everyone even remotely interested in Shakespeare The app itself is carefully made and is the best I have seen yet when it comes to education                     Magnificent m1cha657

This app has a huge amount of high quality material Well worth the price                     Great desert1s

This app is incredible Reading the Tempest is made easy by the layout of text links to explanatory definitions videos background notes etc I was skeptical before my purchase but I was quickly won over by the thoughtful design and layout making the wealth of information easy to access while within the text I cannot wait till they give other Shakespeare plays the same treatment Bravo                     The best way to read Shakespeare luiseduard

Often Shakespeare apps are text heavy rehashes of books one may have already purchased Not so here First it uses the Arden Shakespeare and allows one to control the level of detail seen in the notes as well as providing useful means of navigating the play The videos are the central gem here giving clear delivery and emotional context for what might otherwise prove difficult reading for some Top notch actors and engagingly rendered illustrations make this a fine app indeed It s interface is complex only in that it offers so much but manageable well laid out and allows for ease of use for beginners or long time users of more complex programs Finally it appears to have one even greater allure they indicate there will be one app for each play With this fine offering to whet my appetite I will gladly wait and pay for the future editions                     The bar was quite high with this ttimes

Reminiscent of the old hypercard music education hypercard stacks this in depth study of one of The Bards major works is beyond amazing a tour de force of major importance to education on the Macintosh Nothing seems to be missing From the excellent and effective tutorial to should apple rediscover the concept of scrolling I ll finish this revue                     Wow The nickname "Metalsmith" is taken, because it's MINE!

This app is amazing I haven t read Shakespeare in years and suddenly I m getting to enjoy his plays again                     Astonishing Yeahiknow3
