ADVENTURE STORY AND GAMES
Each chapter is a unique game, with its own mechanic that motivates kids to master important skills. Preschoolers, kindergarten, and elementary school age kids join the Zwuggels in many fun activities. First, they get to know their new friends as they help them to climb hills, feed their little baby monster, or help them with their school work. The next day, the Zwuggels leave for vacation. Time to pack their bags!
In the morning, they make sandwiches and soon fly their airship through a mighty storm and eventually anchor the ship at their destination.
At the beach, they set up chairs, learn to put on sunscreen, relax and build a sandcastle. The calm ends when they find a message in a bottle from a stranded cat! A boat must be found, repaired and painted. They fend off sharks, go fishing, feed dolphins, tickle turtles and find the marooned cat. Will they find the legendary treasure?
WRITTEN IN DELIGHTFUL RHYMES:
“Zwuggels are lovely, joyous things,
they’re friendly, kindly creatures.
They’re really small rather than tall
with funny, charming features.”
EDUCATIONAL ASPECTS
The diverse games are specifically designed to cover a wide spectrum of developmental skills:
A. Cognitive skills by solving age-appropriate logical puzzles:
- Packing: What to pack for vacation?
- Fishing: Training quick reactions, but also patience; Counting.
- Making sandwiches: Listening or reading; Comprehension.
- Picking the correct key: Matching shapes.
These and many other chapters gently foster learning skills: attention, memory, basic logical thinking, etc.
B. Diverse touch-interactions for improving important fine motor skills:
- basic movement: lifting, placing, moving fingers, dragging, tapping.
- advanced touch-manipulation: painting, scratching, turning a crank, placing and hammering virtual nails.
These diverse interactions are woven into the story. Kids are naturally motivated to complete these exercises to continue the narration.

Wanted to finally introduce our 4 year old to games and chose this for its cute characters and innocence. He needed some gentle explanation for the controls and the idea that he could let go of things to try them in places but after that, he loved it. His eyes lit up on the second level when he saw a little boy Zwuggel play with a train, enthused to Mama & after stopping, he emulated the girl climbing across the waterfall using sticks for hand and footholds. Full marks from this parent -- good safe fun :)
