Promising review: “I love this, but my 8 and 6 year old sons love it even more. We’re parents who are a bit fanatical about “screen time” with our kids. Please let me say a word. Most of the time is spent building games for kids. Markers, paper and most importantly their imagination to draw a new game is 90% of the fun. It sounds unbelievable, but it’s true. Different colors are used to create different things that the game automatically recognizes on paper. For example, use “red” to draw danger. Use “green” to make the character move. My boy draws anything but magically the screen brings it to life and the remaining 10% of him blows the minds of children (and parents too). I’m not quite sure how it works, but a huge notebook full of different drawings and games, his two boys who can’t stop using it, and this kind of “screen time” There are two parents of his who have no problems at all. ”—lil
