Piko's Blocks vs Polycuberis

Practice Visual-Spatial Reasoning with encouraging exercises! In Piko’s Blocks the learner builds 3D structures based on presented exercises. Player observes and manipulates self-made 3D objects to develop three-dimensional thinking. Piko’s Blocks has been developed in cooperation with occupational therapists and teachers. PLAY & LEARN: - Spatial and Visual reasoning - 3D geometric thinking - Problem solving KEY FEATURES: - over 300 unique exercises to play - suitable for ages 4+ and doesn’t require the ability to read - does NOT include any In-App Purchases or Ad’s - unlimited player profiles for each device: individual progress is saved - adapts to the player’s skill level motivating and challenging appropriately - has also an option to practice specific exercise type and difficulty level - makes it possible to monitor the player’s progress EXERCISE TYPES: - building matching 3D structures - removing extra pieces from structures - building mirror images of structures - extra challenge is provided for advanced learners by point symmetry and rotation exercises Spatial reasoning ability is an important cognitive skill and it creates a strong basis for learning mathematical skills and STEM subjects. It is also a fundamental advantage in problem solving and creative work, since it helps to create mental visualizations of ideas and concepts. Research confirms that spatial reasoning can developed with regular practice - and this is precisely what Piko’s Blocks offers. Are you now ready for an educational adventure?

The aim is to solve a real-time packing problem by forming complete rows, which then disappear and score points. Poor play leads to incomplete rows, caused by inefficient arrangements of tiles; these rows do not disappear, giving the player progressively less space and less time to play subsequent pieces. Player manipulates a set of polycubes which fall into a three-dimensional pit (seen from above; the pieces appear in the foreground and fall away). The pieces can be rotated around all three axes, and moved horizontally and vertically. The aim is to form complete layers.
