Best for: Interactive play, Creativity, Eye-hand coordination, Interaction
What is it and what do you do with it: interactive play/monster maker app.
Create your monster by completing simple puzzles (color bars responsible for monster's 'DNA') then interact with the monster: feed it, make it dance, help him/her discover little surprises (e.g try touching the strolling chicken).
Each part of the monster can be changed by rearranging color bars (younger kids may just tap on the monster's body, head or limbs to see changes).
What we liked: the concept. Fun way of creating and 'rearranging' your monster. Play&explore mode of play (monster's behavior depends on its design e.g. a short legged monster will have problems with dancing). Humor and fun factor. Music and sound effects. Ease of use. No ads or other distracting features.
What we didn't like: we wish there were more interactive features. We missed some sort of interactive intro/tutorial or at least basic hints.
