4,5,6 Year Old Games for Kids 4+

Interesting and mildly challenging

My 5 year old daughter loves this game. The spooky aspect is just perfect and she loves the voices of the little girl and boy. Even though she has completed all of the rooms there is still good replay value simply due to the games theme.

The puzzle could be more involved and some of the rooms are too simple but overall it was worth the money.

Looking forward to more releases from this developer.

I am not sure about this

So I am a big sister for a 5 year old, a 2 year old, and a 5month old. I was looking for a game for the 5 year old. I wanted to get an education game so I went to the App Store and search education games for 5 year olds. This was the 2nd thing that came up. I read the reviews and the stars and I decided to get it but I wanted to try it myself to see what it really teaches. So when I tried this I was thinking of something a little bit more. When I mean more, I mean like I didn’t really understand the game so I feel like a little bit more instructions would be great and I don’t see any education in this app. It had no reading, no math, no science, no social studies, NOTHING. It was just a game for that age group that made no sense to me. I hope that this would change because if it does then I would re-download this app back.

Developer Response ,

I'm sorry for the late reply. I'm surprised that the app was found with your search. I think it should not be, because you are right, the app is not that educational. The purpose of this app is not to be super educational. It's trying to be different and really exciting. However, I'd like to think it has educational elements as well. While it doesn't teach math or reading, it does have some counting, lots of logical reasoning and problem solving, a little bit of personal hygiene and we hope it shows an example of empathy as well when treating the sick monsters.

There are voice over instructions in the app. We tried to to give kids just enough instructions to be able to figure out what to do in the app. The app does not explain everything right away. It gives short instructions to help kids go on, but at the same time it tries to keep a sense of mystery and leaves things to be discovered by playing. Also the instructions are always repeated when the app notices that kids are not making any progress. But naturally it cannot work for every child and for all ages. Every child is different. I did the best I could keeping in mind the target audience. The app was tested with 5-6 year old kids who received it really well. I'm glad you tried it, and if you decide to play it again, please keep in mind that whenever you have questions or need any assistance with the app, there is a way to contact me directly in the app.

Creative and Fun!

This is a unique and creative series of mini games that my children thoroughly enjoyed playing. I appreciated the not too spooky Halloween theme, which is just right for young children. My daughter especially liked the doctor level. The narrator gives just the right amount of instructions to understand the goal of each level without too many specifics, making sure my kids had to puzzle it out, and search for the solutions sometimes.
