Description

Ready, Set, Code! Code Karts introduces pre-coding to children from the age of 4 through a series of logical puzzles presented in the form of a raceway. What’s more, it teaches kids the fundamentals of code while they race! New in version 4.0: Learn to count in binary with 5 new games! Kids will learn to count like a computer using only 0 and 1 numerals. These activities will sharpen their problem-solving skills and develop their understanding of the decimal system. With over 70 levels, a variety of puzzling obstacles, and two different game modes, there’s no shortage of educational content for kids to enjoy. In Code Karts, the objective is to use direction bricks to get the race car to the finish line. Through careful observation of the track ahead and some logical thinking, kids will quickly pick up on solutions to more and more difficult puzzles and will begin to absorb key elements of code-based thinking. For example, one of the obstacles, the switch, represents “if-then” statements, one of the most common programming tools. While there are a number of games that aim to teach children the fundamentals of code, we’ve found that they are often too difficult to truly educate their intended audience. Code Karts aims to teach the youngest of children the fundamentals of code, allowing them a deeper and more immediate understanding once they become old enough to actually begin writing code themselves. FEATURES: - 2 modes: Classic or Competition (race against the device) - Very intuitive User Interface for children from age 4 - Develop sequencing, problem solving and logic - 70+ levels - 21 languages In our technology-driven world, programming is becoming more and more of a vital skill. It’s a proven fact that the earlier you are introduced to something, the more likely you are to be able to master it as you learn. The same applies to code! By introducing kids to code at a young age, you can ensure that they get a head start in the fascinating realm of computer technology. And what’s a better way to introduce them than through Code Karts, our fun and engaging educational game!

  • This is a great intro to coding for kids.

    We’ve been searching for learning games that will help kids learn to code. It is fun and playable, and our 4 year old dove right in. It’s been helping him learn up, down, left, right. How to apply multiple directions in a sequence to roam on the track to the finish line. This is great early expose to coding, or you know another language at a young age!
  • Too slow and paying for Full game is bad.

    It’s too slow and you should be able to skip the part where you learn for the people who already know it binary is. And also pain to be able to continue the game is bad it’s too slow and have to pay and once I reach that page I immediately sent this review. You should be able to change the sound of the computer.
  • Great game, could be a little better

    My child loves solving the driving puzzles in this game. She does have a few criticisms: the car is always muddy and the winning photo always shows a red car winning even though her car is blue and looks like a rocket. Also I’m unsure if I should have gotten this app or the app with the same name that says school edition. Still overall very happy!
  • Nice coding game!

    I just started the game and I love it, the way you can have multiple kids, and well, everything! I don’t have the full-game-money-thing but it’s just as fun without it.
  • Not enough levels

    The game is great. My daughter really enjoys it. Unfortunately, she’s already finished. Would like to see more levels added. Thank you!

    As many others in the review section have pointed out, there is a serious problem with the in-app purchase of the full version of this game. We’re still waiting on the content to unlock (do we have to wait for something else? Most in-app purchases are instant) and we’re completely unable to create an account. When I go to the parent section to create an account, it asks for a password (I don’t have one—I don’t have an account).
  • Very buggy

    This app works fine on one of our iPads. On our iPad mini the car will never even complete the first screen. It just pauses and you have to exit the screen. Compatibility issues should be fixed or refunds given.
  • Great app, great customer service

    Bought this for my two pre-kindergartners. Both loved the game. It’s fun (they love race cars!) and they love the challenge. I really like the intro to coding practices. 5 stars there. When the fighting broke out between them about who got to play the game, we went to use family sharing to add it to another device so they could each have their own. We ran into the same issues reported here about the in-app purchase not applying in family sharing. We emailed the company using the help feature in the app, and after trying to troubleshoot the problem, they quickly sent out a code to restore the purchase across the family connected accounts. Great customer service, 5 stars there too. If you’re experiencing this problem too, try “buying” the app on the second account instead of downloading it through family sharing, set up an account through the app and then log into both apps with the same account, and see if that resolves the issue. Side note: Personally, I think the problem is with known Apple bugs that cause problems with sharing in-app purchases that unlock game features like this. Not all in-app purchases are the same. I hope Apple finally fixes this soon!
  • Great concept, lousy settings

    If you only want to play on one device, this may be fine. I wanted it on my phone and iPad which is where the problem comes in. On my phone I downloaded it, paid the full unlock and created an account. It automatically downloaded onto my iPad (same account) but didn’t unlock on my iPad, even though I signed into my Edoki account. I let my son play the intro on the iPad, but those levels didn’t apply to the iPhone. It’s absolutely inane that even signed into their program, using the same apple account, you can’t switch between devices!! Forget about even attempting family share with it. Beyond irritated with this company.
  • BEST GAME EVER!!!
