The Grade Eggscape: Adventures of Penny and Bao

Penny and Bao are collecting eggs in the bamboo forest. Sneak up to the nests while the boss naps, grab an egg and carry it back to the pen. Answer a question to hatch it into one of many animals, from common to super rare. Animals earn coins, coins buy gear, and gear makes you faster. Twinkle the fairy is always there to ask: she shows a trick, then lets you try again.

For parents and teachers: choose the subjects and the child’s age on the start screen. Math runs from counting to fractions, decimals and simple equations; reading covers phonics, sight words, stories, grammar, punctuation and spelling; science has matter, forces, Earth, animals, plants and the body; life skills cover money, time, safety and kindness. Questions a child misses come back sooner, so practice goes where it is needed. Young players can have every question read aloud. Up to six players can share one device, each with their own animals and records, and friends on the same network can race and team up. Progress is saved only on this device. Works with a keyboard, mouse or touch screen; sounds are soft and can be turned off.
