WELCOME TO THE HOUSE You're a tiny spider in a big home. Climb anything, swing everywhere, and weave webs across entire rooms. The humans are out. Now it's your time to get to work. Every surface is yours to explore: walls, ceilings, furniture, even the aquarium. The house is enormous from Silky's perspective, and every room is packed with secrets to uncover and plenty of opportunities to make a beautiful mess. BECOME A WEB DESIGNER Stretch your webs from wall to wall, lift objects, build bridges, and create structures nobody asked for. Your webs, your rules. Whether you build a carefully engineered web to transport objects across the room or fling your webs at everything in sight, the physics system responds to every decision you make. Connect objects, suspend them from the ceiling, and use your webs to swing yourself to new heights. CHORES HAVE NEVER BEEN THIS FUN The humans are out fighting the mysterious mortgage. Now it's time for Silky and the Web Scrubbers to pick up the slack, tackle chores, solve mysteries, and make the house their own. One web at a time. Each room is home to a cast of new spiders with their own personalities, tasks, and problems that need solving. Cook breakfast, fix the aquarium, chase down runaway balloons, or help Vera crack the case of the mysterious Prof. Quack. No two quests are the same, and most of them can be solved in more than one way. EXPERIENCE LIFE AS A SPIDER - Climb any surface, even upside down and underwater - Build intricate web structures across entire rooms - Swing freely with precise, responsive web mechanics - Interact with hundreds of physics-based objects - Customise Silky with hats, shoes, and various levels of fluffiness - And cause as much chaos as you want

Step into your electronics workshop and learn to solve faults, one measurement at a time. Circuit Detective combines a diagnostic game with a virtual 3D laboratory. Inspect components, follow circuit traces, place your probes and test your ideas against measurements. 77 MISSIONS TO BUILD YOUR SKILLS Start with resistors, LEDs and switches. Then explore capacitors, diodes, transistors, rectification and signals. Measure, calculate, choose a component or identify a fault. INVESTIGATIONS AND GUIDED PROJECTS Finish the progression with four investigations: measure, find the fault and check your repair. Three guided breadboard projects take you step by step through building a circuit. After each successful mission, explore the schematic and the explanation of your result. HANDS-ON VIRTUAL INSTRUMENTS Use a multimeter, a two-channel oscilloscope, a function generator and an adjustable power supply. Rotate around circuit boards, zoom in on components and inspect the solder side. A WORKSHOP FOR EXPERIMENTS Practice diagnostics and repairs, replace components and build circuits on a virtual breadboard. UNDERSTAND AS YOU PLAY Read lessons, component datasheets and hints. Use the built-in calculator to work through your measurements. Your progress is saved on your device. ONE PURCHASE, THE COMPLETE GAME All missions and the workshop are included. No ads, subscription or in-app purchases. Play offline without creating an account. Available in English, French, Spanish, German, Portuguese (Portugal) Traditional Chinese and Japanese on iPhone and iPad. Circuits are educational simulations: measurements and components are modeled for learning.
