## What is Blue Dino?

Help the Blue Dinosaur catch the vegetables!
The goal is to catch as many vegetables as you can.
But watch out: The game gets more and more hectic the longer you play. 
Drop just three vegetables and it's game over!

The game's soundtrack features 13 verses of the dino-song from the swiss-german "De Blaui Dino" children's stories, by Gschichtefritz.

Each type of vegetable is coupled with a particular instrument in the soundtrack. Shortly before a vegetable becomes visible on the screen, you'll hear its associated instrument fade in. When playing with headphones, you can even 'hear' the positions of the vegetables - left, right, near and far! Once you catch a vegetable, its instrument fades out.

The game has three modes:
- EASY: vegetables will always fall at a constant speed to one of three positions: left, middle and right. This level is easy to play for even very small children.
- MEDIUM: vegetables fall vertically at arbitrary positions.
- HARD: vegetables fall diagonally, bounce off the edge of the screen and are affected by gravity and friction.

Blue Dino is a UniversalApp for iPhone, iPod touch and iPad.

### 5/5 — I can't believe how much my kids love this game

*2011-10-13*

We've had this game for a few weeks now. My 2 year old son can't get enough. He and his sister both try to sing the silly little song (even I laugh at it, I love the sound track) and he gets SO EXCITED I CAN'T EVEN TELL YOU when he catches a piece of fruit in his basket. SO EXCITED!!! This isn't an award winning app, but it's one of the best free apps I've ever downloaded. My son LOVES! IT!!

This game is fun. The dinosaur is really cute and helps pass the time if you were bored or whatever. The music is interesting on the game. AND IT'S FREE can't beat that!
