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.
