Mulle Meck's cars — a construction set for kids

What it is and what you do with it: an interactive play app featuring popular book character Mulle Meck (and his dog Buffa).

Build your vehicle, paint it and test it on the track. Tap oil barrels to refuel, remove obstacles like logs or sandbags and finally drive your truck through a car wash.

The ability to overcome obstacles (or simply driving up a hill) depends on the type of truck you choose, type and size of the wheels etc.

What we liked: the concept. Excellent visuals. Over 50 truck designs to choose from. Humor and fun factor. No ads or other distracting features.

What we didn't like: the driving part can be a bit challenging for younger kids. We wish there was more variety (there is just one driving course).
