From the developers of Altos Odyssey and Altos Adventure, Pok Playroom is a brand-new subscription-based app that motivates kids to explore their creativity without the accomplishments, failures, and goals experienced in most kids games. Coming to iPhone and iPad on May 20th, Pok Playroom costs $4 a month or $30 a year.
Pok Pok Playroom disregards (or straight-out avoids) many of the tropes found in kids games. You will not come across spectacular sound impacts, fancy animations, condescending tutorials, or talking animals in Pok Playroom, and the open-ended app does not set goals or force kids into recurring benefit loops. Instead, Pok Playroom resembles a virtual box of old-fashioned toys, offering kids the freedom to imagine their own stories and explore their creativity.
