Welcome to Sandyverse — a cheerful little 3D world you can explore, play in, and make your own. CREATED BY SANDY ADRIANO Sandyverse was dreamed up and designed by Sandy Adriano. The characters, their names, and their personalities all belong to her — this whole little world started as her idea. Pick your favorite character and wander a sunny courtyard full of friendly faces, twinkling stars, cozy houses, and small surprises. It's gentle, colorful, and made to make you smile. PLAY AS SIX ORIGINAL CHARACTERS Kiki the unicorn-dino, Brontë the stegosaurus, Spike the cactus-dino, Cliff the rock guardian, Boo the friendly ghost, and Lloyd the not-so-spooky wraith — each one hand-designed by the kids who made the game. EXPLORE AND COLLECT Walk around a 3D world with simple touch controls — an on-screen joystick to move, drag to look. Collect glowing stars and watch the characters roam, hop, and say hello. SHOP AND DRESS UP Spend your stars at THE STORE, then visit the DRESSING ROOM to try on outfits and accessories. Pick your colors and make your own style. A LIVING LITTLE WORLD Day-and-night vibes, music, a playful pet, cozy character houses, and a friendly shopkeeper — there's always something sweet to find. MADE BY KIDS Sandyverse started as a hand-drawn character sheet by Sandy Adriano and grew into a real game. The characters, their names, and their personalities all belong to the kids who dreamed them up. Safe and simple: no ads, no in-app purchases, no accounts, no sign-in. Just a kind little world to explore. Plays beautifully on iPhone and iPad, in portrait or landscape.
