PEPI BATH is a pretend play, self-care game where children learn about hygiene in a fun way. Play together with your kids and help them understand the importance of hygiene while developing daily bathroom routines and healthy habits. The app has 4 different situations in which cute character PEPI – a boy or a girl – appears: at the sink, washing clothes, going to a toilet and taking a bath. Every scene offers nice and simple interactions that will help to develop daily bath routines. Characters have a wide range of animated emotions, to react to player actions, so they will frown if something goes not to their liking. This design choice allowed us to create an app without any spoken language, making it widely accessible for audiences all around the world, regardless of spoken language or age. PEPI BATH can be played both as a set process of cleaning or without any pre-set sequence, thus little players are free to choose what they want to do. Cleanliness is fun, however, after washing PEPI’s hands or brushing teeth, kids can pop soap bubbles or play with colorful sprayers, rubber ducks and other items and toys. PEPI BATH was created as a premium app to be experienced by parents and kids of ages 2 to 6. As such, this app contains no in-app purchases or third-party advertising.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: The Magic Bowl at 5.0 against Pepi Bath's 3.7. The Magic Bowl also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 75%) and monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs paid). Pepi Bath's advantage is ratings volume (70 vs 2) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.1). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
