The Connection Grade™ breakdown
Four things we grade, each one judged on what this game actually does. Open any row to see why.
While the game lacks native multiplayer controls, its diorama framing turns the screen into a shared puzzle table where parent and kid inspect scenes side by side, though having only one cursor means an adult can easily steamroll the puzzle-solving if they don't consciously hold back.
Skills this builds
- Scouring intricate diorama backgrounds together to spot hidden tools and interactive levers
- Collaboratively deciphering multi-step schematics in the grandfather's handy manual
- Passing the tablet or mouse back and forth after completing each distinct city district
Try this together
When you open the repair manual to fix the photographer's camera, let your child control the cursor while you read out the lens diagram together.
