Quality
Croc’s World Construction Kit is a high quality app that puts the user in the driver’s seat, so to speak. The app operates smoothly and as expected. The graphics are appropriate for slightly low-resolution retro video game along the lines of older Mario, Sonic, or similar games. Developers may want to consider adding a tutorial for new users who are not yet familiar with the various symbols and options normally available in the game.
Education
While this app is not intended to be educational, there is a lot of value here. Students who build worlds in Croc’s World Construction Kit will be exercising planning, prediction, and spatial skills. Those who play will be nurturing memory, logic, and reasoning skills. While none of these things will automatically help improve grades, they all work together to improve studies in academic areas as well as in writing, since writing requires the same kind of organization and planning as creating a new world in a video game.
Entertainment
Croc’s World Construction Kit is highly entertaining. It’s a great way to take control of the world and offers many options for creating new levels in a popular game. Kids and adults alike will have fun thinking up new challenges and designing new puzzles for themselves, friends, and other users.
