Neighbors can sometimes create problems more serious than noise at the wrong time of the day. In this game you have to face an unusual neighbor, whose home is full of chilling secrets. Get into his house unnoticed, bypassing all the traps and video cameras, and get to the truth that can shock you! The main character in this interactive thriller is yourself, thanks to a realistic camera from the first person perspective. Moving to a new home, you discover some oddities in the behavior of your unsociable neighbor from the house across the street. He never leaves his home, from which strange and unsettling sounds can be heard, like cries. And one dark night a neighbor drags out of his house a bag with something that resembles a human body. It becomes clear that something suspicious is going on. You can not stay away - you need to get into the neighbor's house and find out what's happening inside! However, this will not be so easy to do! Each corner of his yard is adorned with a movable video camera, and all doors and windows are securely locked. And the neighbor himself is a rather dangerous person who will stop at nothing, just to hide all his dark deeds. If he discovers you, you are unlikely to be able to leave his house alive! Stay unnoticed, use your own ingenuity and uncover a terrible secret! Features: Advanced camera system from the first person perspective, allowing you to move around freely and look without any delay! Finding and using useful items. Find a flashlight, pimples, keys, gas cans and much more - all this will come in handy in the neighbor's house! Constantly watch your back - the neighbor can lie in wait for you anywhere! In a critical situation, you can try to escape and take shelter in your own home - the horrendous neighbor will not be able to get through to catch you! Your goal is the basement of the neighbor’s house. The key to unraveling all the terrible secrets is somewhere there! A stunning soundtrack, the sinister melodies - all of it perfectly convey the atmosphere of a mystical thriller! Will you be able to get to the bottom of the truth, or will you become another victim of an ominous neighbor?

About

Tiko Bot

Features
Read full description

Tiko Bot is a 3D coding adventure for kids. Tiko, a cute little robot, travels across floating islands to deliver a battery to friends who are waiting: a pom-pom, a bunny, a puppy and an owl. Children build Tiko's program from picture blocks, press GO and watch Tiko run it. HOW IT WORKS • Drag or tap picture blocks onto Tiko's program. A glowing path shows your plan right away. • Press GO and Tiko runs it. The block Tiko is running glows. • Funny fails: Tiko bonks a rock and gets dizzy, or falls in the water and floats back on a balloon. Then try again, with your program kept. WHAT CHILDREN LEARN Blocks to go forward, turn left or right, jump (over steps and gaps), press (buttons raise bridges and open gates) and repeat with loops, even loops inside loops. "If colour" blocks let Tiko choose. In debug levels, children fix Tiko's buggy program. ENDLESS LEVELS New ideas arrive one at a time, then get mixed together. Every level is checked by a solver to make sure it can be solved. Worlds include a grass meadow, a sandy beach, snowy hills and candy land. MADE FOR YOUNG LEARNERS • Hints in three steps: a glowing path, the next block, then "Show me" • Earn 1 to 3 gears per level (reach the friend, collect all the coins, use the fewest blocks) and coins for the Workshop, which has free looks for Tiko. Coins buy extra looks; all coding blocks are free • Weekly and global leaderboard on ATHRYZA's server (needs internet), with kid-safe generated nicknames only: children never type names • Play without an account. Grown-ups can optionally link Google or Apple sign-in to keep progress across devices • Shows only small, clearly labelled ATHRYZA ad cards (our own apps), including a banner card area on screens during play. No third-party ads, no tracking • A grown-up check comes before every link out, share, sign-in and notification • Available in 16 languages. Levels play offline. No in-app purchases Looking for a coding game for kids? Tiko Bot teaches programming for kids through play: robot coding with picture blocks, loops, conditions and debugging.
