GeoCon is an educational game for iPhone. It is useful for students, teachers and math enthusiasts studying plane geometry since the geometric constructions of GeoCon are one of the most interesting and exciting areas of geometry. With GeoCon you will literally create and touch various constructions with your finger. In this way, an important part of geometry is made both tangible and interactive. It can even be fun! Resolve construction tasks, discover new levels, gather achievements, compete with your friends and increase your mathematical reasoning skills and understanding with GeoCon. Have fun and learn at the same time! Features: - 38 levels in 4 categories provide something for everyone from a beginner to a skilled student - levels can be completed in a multiple different ways – GeoCon is flexible! - hints, user-friendly solutions and guidance are available in the app – GeoCon is a helpful and provides guidance. - move, scale and rotate the canvas, and also move points to get a different perspective on the level.

Details: Easy tutorial steps will teach you the basic geometric constructions: setting and moving points, constructing lines and circles, creating intersection points. After the tutorials, there are 38 challenging levels with different complexity, which makes the game interesting for everyone no matter what their skills in geometry currently are. All game levels are divided into four categories: Basic constructions, Line segments, Triangles and Circles. Completing these first levels provide you with new construction tools. These new tools make the completion of more complex levels less tedious – the same way a professional mathematician works. As a reward for each level you will get a silver or golden medal. The golden medal is given for each level solved through a minimum possible number of moves. Stuck on some level or just want to find out how to solve it with the minimum number of moves?
