Virry Academy is a playful, cutting edge learning tool for children. You probably would not even imagine that these things can be done in Virry: - give water to real giraffes by shaking iPad or iPhone, - literally call out the lioness and watch her appear, - smile to the macaques and see how they react - spin around in cardboard glasses, and let timorous zebra sniff your face! Yes, quite unbelievable but it’s true. We chose the best wildlife conservancies and wildlife parks for partnership as we strive to take communication between kids and animals to a whole new level, and nurture an empathetic connection with wildlife. Progress from being an Intern of Virry Academy to the Head of Meerkats, Minister of Rhinos or President of the Council of the Elephants by collecting awesome badges. Badges are awarded for playing Interactive games, watching live cameras and making screenshots as a real wildlife photographer, spinning around in 360/VR videos, creating and showing your friends best moments from live video-library covering a wide range of species. Wildlife is not abstract anymore as Virry makes wild animals your close friends. Not every scientist can boast of such a powerful tool to watch wild species every day. 28 unique games with real animals: Macaques, Orangutans, Lion, Flamingos, Rhino, Giraffes and Meerkats. 50 best moments from the live stream. VIRRY encourages discovery and problem solving, helping kids to better understand nature and the world around them. But it’s not all about action. VIRRY also encourages kids to be more empathetic. Don’t scare the animals! Let them come to you. These empowering moments teach important skills that are often overlooked in ordinary games. To play VIRRY on Apple TV, please install the free VIRRY Controller app on your iPhone or iPad from the App Store: this allows you to interact with the animals through your TV.

Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Code Kingdom at free with in-app purchases against Virry game's subscription. Code Kingdom also leads on review sentiment (88% vs 76%). Virry game's advantage is rating (3.9 vs 3.6) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Virry game sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Code Kingdom sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Virry game holds the better App Store score, 3.9 against 3.6. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 14 and 18 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 76% of Virry game's written reviews are positive against 88% of Code Kingdom's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Virry game ships an update fortnightly, Code Kingdom every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 6, 2026 respectively.
