Many patches were made after this, but all were unpatched within a matter of days. The exploits did not become well known until early 2020, and the first unsuccessful patch was made in May of 2020 and was unpatched by ProdigyMathGameHacking a few days later. The first Prodigy Math Game exploits were developed in early 2019 by ProdigyMathGameHacking, a GitHub repository dedicated to introducing the security problems that Prodigy has into the public. Prodigy has a history of security issues that they have failed to patch regarding obtaining in-game items, in-game rewards, etc, but not largely around user data. By playing, the player collects gold, items, outfits, and other accessories which they can use in-game. The player's role in Prodigy is to rescue the pets, save the 'guardians' of the zones, and defeat the Puppet Master and Pippet.
His sidekick is known as 'Pippet', an evil puppet. The main antagonist of Prodigy Math Game is the 'Puppet Master', an evil entity attempting to control all the pets, to destroy the island. The math questions are aligned by the grade and state selected at the account creation process. The player's objective is to explore the world as a young wizard and battle monsters by solving arithmetic problems to cast a spell.
