## What is Cyberchase Shape Quest?

From PBS KIDS and Cyberchase comes Shape Quest, a captivating app combining games, puzzles and 3D augmented reality! Shape Quest challenges kids ages 6-9 to use geometry and spatial reasoning to hone their problem-solving skills.

Features
-NOTICE: Only works with tablet devices that feature rear-facing cameras. 
-3 different games focused on building geometry, spatial reasoning and problem-solving skills
-80 fun-filled educational puzzles
-5 fantastic Botopolis environments each with its own animal friends
-Augmented reality game interface brings the Patch The Path game into the physical world, fully engaging the player's senses and spatial thinking skills

Buzz and Delete are back in Botopolis for another fun-filled adventure. Play with them and their animal friends through these three different math-based games.

PATCH THE PATH
Help your animal friends return to their homes in this augmented reality (“AR”) game, which uses a tablet’s camera to combine the real world with 3D digital content. Travel through 30 levels in 5 different environments and apply spatial memory, visualization and modeling skills, while investigating, predicting, putting together and taking apart two- and three-dimensional shapes. But this isn’t a game to play just sitting on your couch! By using the camera on your tablet, plus the “AR” technology, you can play while moving your whole body around the game board. 

Before you play Patch the Path, you will need to print the game board from the Shape Quest website at http://pbskids.org/shapequest

FEED THE CRITTERS
The critters are hungry. Feed them by flicking food – but watch out for walls and obstacles. Play with 5 different animals in their Botopolis habitats through a total of 25 levels, while you practice spatial reasoning. 

HIDE AND SEEK
The animals have hidden behind different geometric shapes. Can you find them all? Through 25 different puzzles, practice your geometry vocabulary while learning about hexagons, right angles, number of sides, and much more

### 2/5 — SCARY!!

*2020-04-19*

So usually make creepy reviews on Outfit7 apps, but i think this app is creepy. Let me explain. [2]If you point the camera away from the map, [3] well you’ll see but i will just tell you. [2]. There is very loud static noises. But even creepier pasta is that delete will say that’s it but, sometimes it sounds like the S Word just saying, PBS, please get rid of the loud noise. and maybe fix the quality if that’s possible. P.S. all the numbers in this review are markers for more space and less typing, for example, [2] means "if you point the camera away from the map." Thats [2]. And so on. [3] is, "well you’ll see but i will just tell you" so it’s just markers. but please fix this app.

### 2/5 — It’s fine, I guess...

*2018-08-25*

I would recommend more activities to play, since I couldn’t print the map thing, I only had TWO activities to play, how would you feel if you couldn’t print the map paper and had only two activities to play? This game is a bummer to me ;-;

Please get this if you can!!

                                                                Xoxo, Your local potato

### 5/5 — An awesome augmented reality app that's simple to use

*2014-07-18*

I love this app and so do my students. My 26 prep/foundation students loved playing this app. A must for introducing shape.

### 1/5 — Print Map

*2014-07-08*

My daughter was playing the game today and it said we had to print the map from online.  I have tried several ways but I can not get the map to print so she is unable to play it.

### 1/5 — Annoying map game

*2014-06-27*

The main game requires you to print a map and keep the iPad lined up with the printed map in order to play. It looks neat but I can't think of any reason why this is necessary and, honestly, to keep it lined up and connected is downright annoying. It means this game can't be played in the car or anywhere but a space conducive to that kind of set up. I'm only giving this two stars instead of one because the other games are decent.

### 2/5 — Great

*2014-05-19*

my opinion on this app was that it was fun but I wish it was harder. But it is great for younger kids

### 5/5 — Awsome

*2014-05-07*

Awsome!!!!!!!!

### 5/5 — Quite a Hit!

*2014-04-16*

My second grade students flipped for this game!  Great fun after our geometry unit!  They absolutely loved it!  More of these please, PBS!  You are wonderful!

### 5/5 — Awesome! Here are some tips:

*2014-01-23*

This is an awesome 3 games! TIPS FOR PLAYING THE MAIN GAME:: In the first level there are no thumb controls, so play by **moving the whole iPad** toward the bunny rabbit. Move the iPad screen really close to the gameboard while you keep the bunny centered on screen. You just need to do this a few times. And don't cover the camera with your fingers! All 3 games working good on my iPad2.

### 5/5 — This game is awesome ! And tips...

*2014-01-22, version 1.0.4*

This is an awesome set of 3 games! It's one of top educational apps in the US store. TIPS FOR PLAYING THE MAIN GAME:: In the first level there are no thumb controls, so just play by *moving the whole iPad* toward the bunny rabbit on the board. Move the whole screen really close to the gameboard while keeping the bunny in view. You just need to do this a few times. And don't cover the camera with your fingers! All 3 games work very well on my iPad2, and I love them.
