HOW SHAPE GURUS TEACHES

This educational game teaches kids key math skills of how to match shapes and sort and classify shapes and colors.

Kids learn shapes and how to identify and name them by repeatedly listening to the game’s audio.

The puzzles the player has to solve teach kids creative problem solving skills, encourage creative thinking and teach fine motor skills.

HOW TO PLAY

Tap the play button and the game moves to the first screen. The game play starts with a green circle and a dotted outline of a circle.

Touch it and drag it into the outline to form one circle.

This simple task is like a tutorial, teaching the player how to use the game’s swipe mechanic.

Next the circle becomes a green egg and starts to shake. Tap the pulsating egg several times until it cracks open and a baby bird hatches.

The little bird flies up into the tree to a new puzzle where the player has to build a bird’s nest out of brown triangles.

The game continues with increasingly difficult tasks and puzzles which the player solves to move their way through the evolving story.

Each time the player drags and drops a shape into a puzzle in the correct place, they hear audio naming the shape and color.

In this way players learn shapes and how to identify them by name.

The game environment moves from the tree to a garden with plants and seeds, to a bee and into its beehive then dives down below the ground to an ant's nest.

Lower in the ground there are dinosaur bones and a mine with precious stones.

The game then moves up into a hot air balloon, into mountains where it's snowing then down into a city and up into the sky where the child builds a rocket then takes off and lands on the moon.

After the last task is completed, the game loops and the player is taken back to the first screen.
