Klanki

Build funny paper machines. Drop the marble. Watch everything go klank! Klanki is the building game a five-year-old plays without reading a word — bought once, no subscription. Pick up a plank because it looks like a plank, put it where the marble should go, and find out whether you were right. That's the whole loop, and it's the whole of engineering. WHAT'S INSIDE • 36 handcrafted levels across 6 chapters — each chapter introduces a new part • An endless sandbox with 18 blueprint machines to copy, master and remix • In the full version, a big table three screens wide for long machines — with three big blueprints, from Old MacDonald on 26 xylophone bars to a grand tour of cannons and lifts • 12 paper parts: plank, springboard, block, gear, fan, pendulum, domino, tube, xylophone, spiral, lift and switch • A hand-drawn paper world with playful sounds and gentle haptics • Film your machine: one tap makes a short video of your own contraption, and grown-ups can share it from behind the gate • A shelf keeps your favourite machines, synced through your own iCloud MADE FOR NON-READERS There is not one word in the child's half of the game. No tutorial to read, no menu to parse, no button that says Continue. And no timers, no lives, no score — a level waits as long as it takes. The reward is watching your own machine actually work. PARENTS CAN RELAX • No ads and no third-party anything — the App Store privacy label says Data Not Collected, because there is nothing to collect • Works fully offline: planes, road trips, cottages with no signal • Buying, links and settings live behind a grown-ups-only gate • One purchase opens everything, forever — shared with your family through Family Sharing • Progress syncs through your own iCloud, with no account to make Chapter 1 and the starter sandbox are free. One purchase opens all 36 levels, all 12 parts and every blueprint. And every day one more part visits the free sandbox as a guest — a gear today, a fan tomorrow.
