For kids 5 and under they would love it. There's an alien ship and it crashes and gets thrown to earth and you have to help fix it. You run around taking pictures of stuff in your house but you only take pictures of what the aliens say. When you're done you bring it to your parent and they click thumbs up if it's right and thumbs down if it's not right and then it shows the spaceship being fixed and then they go through space, crash again, go back to the same planet, and it starts over again but you have to take pictures of different things and different things get broken. The aliens are funny and they make you want to watch more and the game is really easy so 2 year olds could play it. They say the instructions out loud and then tell which button to push and what the button looks like so it's easy to find. Taking the pictures is really fun because most little kids like stealing a phone and running around taking pictures, and that's what this game is for. We think this game is best for 5 and under. It makes them think about same and opposite and helping others. And you have to think about it and be creative because it doesn't say "Take a picture of a window" it says "Take a picture of something that's clear" so you could take a picture of a crystal or a window or glasses or the see through tape roll or anything you could see through. Older kids get bored and it doesn't really teach them anything. They should add a level for older kids so they have to do math and stuff to fix the ship. (Review by Gavin, 7 and London, 5)


Unique & Innovative

Alien Assignment is an innovative, award-winning app which takes your child on a scavenger hunt around your home to help the Alien family fix their spaceship. It utilizes the camera on your device in order to take a picture of an item fitting an attribute needed by the aliens. For example if the Alien's helmet is broken, you will need to take a picture of something you wear on your head. Each mission requires the child to find 4 different items based on function or attribute. What a great way to target descriptive concepts! It is also a great way to teach a child how to frame an object to take a picture. After all 4 pictures have been taken, an adult can review whether the pictures fit the descriptors. If they do, the mission is accomplished. There are no IAPs or Ads. With its unique format and imaginative storyline, I highly recommend this app.


Great app, fosters interaction

This is a great app - and I say that as a parent who feels kids are being harmed by overexposure to screens and devices. It fosters interaction with and curiosity about the environment of real things outside the phone, and encourages interaction with adults.


Amazing!!

My young kids love the scavenger hunt aspect, and I love that we talked about the vocabulary that it introduced. I was surprised that there were some words they didn’t know, but what a wonderful way to learn them. Very engaging way to learn some new words.


Doesn't work with iPhone 6

Boo boo sweetie pie

Good game until upgraded phone to iPhone 6. Camera function won't work. Makes the game useless.
