Game cover: Timothy

Description

Timothy is an edutainment-adventure game which tells the story of a human-looking creature named Timothy, living a happy life with his best friend, butterfly Basil, on an unnamed island. One day however, the evil Prince (named Skarboniusz in Polish release) captures Basil. Timothy decides to rescue his friend, but the kingdom of the evil prince is marked only on a magic map that has been split into several pieces left on the island. Timothy needs to collect all the pieces from various residents of the island, including gardener, musician, painter and fireman.

Gameplay consists of 16 mini-games with 3 levels of difficulty. Players can play them directly from the main menu or by navigating through the island in point-and-click manner. Some of the mini-games require keyboard input, some can be played only using a mouse. Objects visible on the screen in between mini-games are interactive and play various animations.

Game aims to teach children by thinking and solving problems and so, developing mind skills with various challenges. The whole gameplay is done in art-themed way - there are no text-based descriptions (explanation) of game’s mechanics (except controls required to play the game) as child will try to learn it by playing it over and over.
