This videogame is a digital adaptation of the popular boardgame created by Carles Rodrigo, a Doctor in Pedagogy, and sold by Sabadell Shop. At Croissant Cat Games, we have transformed Kidnelis into a digital format that fully utilizes the capabilities of this medium, providing an enhanced experience.

Through a series of sentences, players must read, determine if they are true or false, and then recreate them by writing, typing, or arranging word-bricks. This game is especially beneficial for young players as it encourages communication and discussion about the credibility of the statements with family, friends, or teachers.

Who is this game for?

This game is suitable for:

• Children aged 6 and above who are learning to read and write
• Language learners of all ages
• Elderly individuals looking to maintain their mental and physical abilities

It is also a useful tool for individuals with disorders such as ADD/HD, ASD, DYSLEXIA, or difficulties with reading, writing, spelling, or handwriting. While these disorders are commonly associated with childhood, Kidnelis can benefit individuals of all ages, particularly adults looking to maintain their memory and cognitive skills.

What are its strengths?

The design of this videogame allows players to improve the following skills:

• Literacy development
• Attention and concentration
• Comprehension
• Short-term memory
• Imagination
• Drawing
• Calligraphy

Answering true or false statements helps players understand the world around them, distinguish between reality and fiction, and promotes dialogue with others.

Literacy skills

Kidnelis focuses on written language and sentence construction. Players must read and understand a sentence, determine if it is true or false, and then recreate it using word-bricks, typing, or handwriting. This exercise helps improve reading and writing skills, as well as the ability to sequence and separate words, enhancing reading, intonation, and comprehension abilities.

Attention and concentration

To successfully complete any task, one must be attentive and focused. Kidnelis provides a simple and clear environment for players to concentrate on tasks without feeling overwhelmed. Assistance is also available if needed.

Comprehension

Answering true or false questions may seem simple, but it requires mental engagement and utilizes the player's knowledge and experiences. This exercise helps the brain retrieve information and respond accurately. Additionally, players can enhance their comprehension by verbally practicing the opposite of a given sentence.

Short-term memory

Reading a sentence aloud and then recreating it without looking at it again requires the use of short-term memory and reading comprehension. To further improve short-term memory, players can try reading multiple sentences and recalling them, drawing a picture based on a sentence, or writing the opposite version of a sentence.

Imagination

The true or false structure of the game allows players to imagine fictitious situations, promoting an understanding of what is possible and what is not in the world. This exercise encourages children to think about their surroundings and generate dialogue about their likes, dislikes, and what is and isn't possible.

Drawing

By drawing the meaning of given sentences, players can improve their fine motor skills and understanding abilities. It also allows for artistic expression.

Calligraphy and digital writing

Kidnelis offers three different interaction modes for players to choose from, each with its own benefits:

1. Building sentences using word-bricks allows players to focus on sentence construction and receive immediate feedback.
2. Practicing typing on a keyboard promotes familiarity with the QWERTY pattern and improves communication skills in a digital world.
3. Writing by hand, using a digital pen or finger, helps develop fine motor skills.
