Learn to read through an adventure full of magic, play, and discovery. In ABC Dragons, your child joins Drako, a little dragon who needs help to save his family and his entire village. A mysterious spell has turned everyone into magical eggs… and only the power of letters can bring them back to life. Each letter opens the door to a new world. Through vibrant, richly detailed environments —the farm, the workshop, the school, the restaurant, and many more— children can explore freely, interact, combine objects, and create their own stories. As they play, they naturally become familiar with letters, their sounds, and their first words. What you’ll find in ABC Dragons: • Letter recognition (uppercase and lowercase) • Visual tracing of each letter • Formation of simple words • Dynamic attention and discrimination games (flying and collecting letters) • Image-to-word association All seamlessly integrated into the gameplay experience. As children interact with the environment, a magical progress bar fills up, unlocking new challenges with the current letter. Once completed, the egg hatches… revealing a new character to play with in the scene. A world full of possibilities: • Open-ended sandbox-style play, where everything invites exploration • Mini goals within each scenario (planting, building, cooking…) • Character editor to create unique dragons • Drawing mode to color and express creativity • Calm and accessible pace for young children Designed for children aged 3 to 6, ABC Dragons supports learning while respecting their curiosity, their rhythm, and their way of discovering the world. Letters become play. Words start to make sense. And every small step feels like a magical achievement.
