## What is STEM Builder?

The “Construct a car” – is an app not only for children, but for the whole family. The “Construct a car” – is a unique application available for iPad and there are no analogues for it. 

The “Construct a car” consists of 16 iron shapes for assembling an automobile former, 8 sorts of spongy brakes, 8 different types of wheels, engine, headlights, arcs, spoilers, wings etc, in order not to limit the child’s imagination. The most important is that when the car is ready, the kid can have a ride on it on a highway. Highway driving is a simulation of an actual driving experience - the gas pedal, brake, acceleration, cocking level, braking effect and others. 

There are two sections. The first is - «Manual», i.e. visually aided wizard demonstrating all the possibilities and functionality of this app. This section has 3 cars. 

The second section is «Garage». Here a kid can independently choose and assemble any imagined cars, cutters, tanks – anything that comes to his mind. For an easier and more convenient assembly this section has ready car formers. 

Both sections have highways to test out the newly assembled car. How can one assemble a car without giving it a test drive?! 

We are sure that your kid (and not only your kid!) will be delighted with our new “Construct a Car” app.

It's ok

### 1/5 — Removed

*2014-03-28, version 1.1.3*

This app is nothing but a frustration. You can build, but cannot drive. There are no directions. It is a lure to get you to buy the full app, but who knows if that will work either. Just say no!

### 1/5 — Bad game

*2014-01-06, version 1.1.3*
