Learn shapes around you (Free)

Innovative learning game on shapes for primary school kids from age of 5-9

‘Shapes around me’ from Digitales Communication Private Limited’s game studio is a shapes building, recognition and application game produced to inculcate these very crucial skills in kids in the age group 5-9 . The shapes which kid will be able to recognize, spell and apply after playing the game are Triangle, Isosceles Triangle, Equilateral Triangle, Square, Rectangle, Pentagon, Trapezium etc.

The three main phases in every level of the game are cutting the bamboo logs of specific sizes required to make the shapes, then arranging the bamboos to make the shape and finally see the shape fitting into an incomplete world view. The objective of the game is to complete the world view by finishing all the levels and score as high as possible while doing that.

Phase 1

In order to cut the bamboo logs the kid will have to swipe across a growing beanstalk bamboo tree. The number of logs and their sizes that the kid is supposed to collect will be mentioned on the screen at bottom. As the bamboo logs are being collected the requirement will keep getting low. In order to help the kid cut the bamboo log of specific sizes there will be red colored marks on the bamboo beanstalk which is a cue for the player to swipe and cut the bamboo. Also the voice over will announce when the requisite number of logs have been collected

The player will earn points when he swipes the bamboo at the correct place and loose points for swiping at incorrect places ( swipe has to be on the ‘red’ cue). Also the faster the kid collects the logs the better.

Phase 2

In phase two the kid will then arrange the bamboo logs ( selection of log will happen by tapping the bamboo log, deselection will happen by tapping some other log) size wise on to the corners of shapes ( after selecting the bamboo log the kid will have to select the corners of the line which he/she’s trying to complete by tapping the two corners one after the other) to make lines of the shape. So a triangle will have to be fit with three bamboo logs and the square with four bamboo logs and so on.

In order for the kid to understand what size bamboo logs will have to be fit where, the size of the log will be mentioned in between the corners and the kid will have to fit only the right sized bamboo log there. If the right fitment happens automatically the bamboo will be seen on the line. Otherwise if the kid tries to fit the wrong sized bamboo log a red cross sign will be seen on top right.

After a shape is complete the voice over will announce the name of the shape that kid has just completed.

The faster the kid completes this level the more points he/she will garner, also the less the red crosses the more the points.

Phase 3

The shapes which the kid will complete will go on to build a part of the world view which will be incomplete till the kid plays all the levels.

The game will begin with a main screen which will have the play button at centre, exit button at top right, Volume mute button below, leader board button below that ( where the parents and see the progress of the kid in the game by checking his/her scores level wise and also the total score), reset button which will reset all the scores and all settings related to levels and the help button below that.

Enjoy the game!
