FireTrucks: 911 rescue (educational app for kids)
Overall Score: 89/100
version reviewed: 1.0
reviewed:
Best for: Interactive play, Attention & concentration, Interaction, Language, Thinking & problem solving, Understanding of the world
What is it and what do you do with it: an interactive play app with 5 fire trucks. Complete simple tasks (e.g. put out fires, rescue victims etc) by 'driving' and 'operating' the trucks with your finger.
Touch various parts of vehicles for simple interactions (turn on/off engine, lights etc).
What we liked: the concept. Excellent graphics. Lots of interactions. Sounds and sound backgrounds. Good variety of 'tasks', simple scoring system. Humor and fun factor.
What we didn't like: visual guides are OK but we would prefer audio instructions. Controlling the vehicles can be a bit frustrating at times (they move too slow or too fast). The education value could be higher (e.g. the purpose, names of parts of the trucks could be added).
