Kid Driver Demo

In order for children to be open to learning new things, the activity needs to be both fun and engaging, otherwise the lack of interest gets in the way of memory as well. However, if fun and knowledge can be packed all into one, then it may be possible to help kids learn useful skills by not even realizing they are doing it, because the end results are worth it.

Kid Driver is a simple video game that allows you to motivate your children to read and learn a bit of maths while driving a sports car. It may not teach them an awful lot, but even a bit of knowledge is better than nothing, especially when it is associated with the fun in the young mind of your offspring. Moreover, the game features no violence or any other kind of disturbing imagery either.

On the other hand, it is rather cluttered and poorly designed, given the fact that the entire action takes place on an island of some sorts. There are plenty of buildings, mountains, and even a racing track, all of which lie next to each other and make for a rather weird transition between them. However, one can get accustomed to it after a while, as long as the experience is worth it.

Beside aimlessly driving around the island, it is also possible to participate in a variety of mini-games, most of which are educational in their nature. As an example, children can learn how to read and understand sentences, by choosing the correct word to fill in a blank. To do this, the kids need to drive over the correct ramp, which is made easier with the help of strong colors.

Moreover, there are a variety of vehicle models to choose from, including tractors and a minivan. They are not very different when it comes to handling, but they certainly look differently and that’s all that matters. Speaking of which, the visuals are not exactly bad, the the wild range in texture quality makes the overall product appear very unpolished, especially when coupled with the ugly interface design.

All things considered, Kid Driver is not exactly the best educational game out there, but it tries pretty hard to provide the children with a meaningful experience. Not only that, but the game can be fun as well, especially since free roaming is always an option.
