What it is: an interactive adaptation of Charles Dickens classic with extra features (puzzles, achievements, historical facts etc). 16 pages.

What you do with it: read the book yourself or listen to the narration. Touch the characters/objects for interactions and animations. Collect 'achievements' for various actions (e.g. engage in a food fight, help Oliver run away from the policemen etc).
Each page contains extra information about the original Dickens work and historical facts.

What we liked: the story, illustrations, the extra content.

What we didn't like: we were a bit disappointed with some of the interactions/animations (some of the 'achievements badges' are awarded for rather basic actions, like opening the bridge on the river). The text layout could be more 'young reader friendly'. The extra fact pages are not read out by the narrator.
