Inspiring Educational Curiousity

When we were little we used crayons to represent all our imaginations and our own big creative world on paper.Now here comes a game by the developers of Kloonigames that uses the principles of our imaginative tools to help adults and also children learn some of the basic concepts of Physics,so while the game may look somewhat childish it is in no way to be written off as just another child game sensation but rather a creative learning and problem solving adventure.The game looks as though it was designed by a bunch of 6 year old geniuses,as the design is very creative and simple yet still helping you grasp the concepts of it.



The game consist of about 70 levels and the main concept of the game is for you to manipulate a little ball to help it get to a yellow star in every stage.To do this you must use a crayon which can give the ball a push to get to the star.Other functions of the crayon include that you can draw a rope to move objects,draw bridges and just about what ever imaginative object you can think of in order to get the ball to the star.

What I thought was very insightful about this was that it not only enhanced the ability of an individual's critical thinking skills but even though it was a single player game,it was amazing to see how different an individual's problem solving skills developed and worked.An instance was when I was practically stuck on a stage then a relative of mine came by and showed me how he would have gotten the ball to the star which now added to my cognitive ability to understand the lesson of that stage,also this just shows how many ways you can achieve the goal of each stage.
