HOW TO PLAY The app offers 207 clever puzzle levels filled with fun science concepts. Seven playful elements with unique physical properties are gradually introduced. Kids will discover through hands-on manipulation how to use these objects to their advantage and clear a path. • Cookies • Munch them to clear a path or resist those treats to avoid getting trapped! • Crates • Push them to fill gaps or stack them to reach higher ground. • Balloons • Burst them on spikes to get them out of your way. • Rocks • Get a crash course in Newtonian physics by dropping heavy, dense boulders to break through cracked ground. • Jelly • Bounce Thinkrolls and objects on springy jellies to launch them up. • Fire • Use ice blocks to put out the fire and safely pass through. • Elevators • Timing is added to the mix! Synchronize movements of two different elevators to navigate through the maze. MASTER THE ART OF THINKING Little players will master the art of thinking while using to their advantage force, acceleration, buoyancy, heat, elasticity and gravity to reach the end of the maze. The puzzles gradually build upon successive science lessons to strengthen observation, creative thinking, logic, problem solving, spatial cognition and memory. There are unlimited tries and no penalties. Thinkrolls not only challenges the brain but also develops and rewards patience and perseverance. As kids try different combinations to achieve their goal, they intuitively learn through trial and error what works. They must think ahead, use precise timing and rely on their memory to reunite their Thinkroll buddies. ________________________________ MAIN FEATURES • 207 levels with mind-sharpening puzzles • Easy mode for ages 3-5, hard mode for ages 5-8 • Hands-on physics lessons • Experiment with gravity, heat, buoyancy, speed, elasticity, friction and other science concepts • Enhance logic, spatial cognition, problem solving, memory, perseverance • 26 hilarious, super smart characters to play with • Fun brain training for the whole family • Track progress for up to 9 player profiles • Supreme design and beautiful artwork • Original soundtrack and sound design • Language neutral game-play • COPPA compliant, no 3rd party ads, no in-app purchases More info: avokiddo.com ________________________________ PRIVACY POLICY We respect your privacy!

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Tiny Orchestra holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Thinkrolls 1 has 16K ratings behind it against 23, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 91% of Thinkrolls 1's written reviews are positive against 74% of Tiny Orchestra's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Thinkrolls 1 ships an update every 4 months, Tiny Orchestra monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
