Arcade Logic Puzzles
Put your thinking cap on and solve hundreds of logic puzzles filled with fun physics and friendly creatures! Little players must use all their wits to navigate their Thinkrolls through a series of colorful mazes. They will handle and combine objects and think several moves ahead to clear a path.
There are three difficulty levels – basic, easy, and hard. Basic introduces children to each of the puzzle pieces and how they work. As they progress, the levels increase in complexity, incorporating the use of various puzzle pieces in a single level. Watch a sample of the gameplay in the video below:
A variety of puzzle pieces, each with its own unique features, can teach children about various concepts through logic and reasoning. For example:
- Rocks and crates help children learn about gravity
- Balloons teach children about bouyancy
- Gears and racks help children understand simple machines
