DetecThink gives Dora the Explorer a run for her money

Math practice is enmeshed in an engaging detective story.

There are lots of digital entertainment games for children but most lack educational content. Interactions with fellow moms reveal the common concern that children spend too much time on entertaining digital games which take time out from learning. Moms often complain about their children getting bored with traditional math workbooks and would instead prefer playing gaming apps.

Advocating the philosophy of “Learn + Play”, DetecThink was designed by Intellipath Games to captivate children through an engaging detective mystery while integrating math practice seamlessly into the story.

Intellipath Games announces the launch of DetecThink, an educational gaming app created to help children learn math through a series of fun, interactive detective games.
DetecThink is an interactive mobile game designed to stimulate children’s creative problem solving and analytic skills. DetecThink players become fully immersed in a detective case work by solving a series of interactive clues that include freeing a princess, unlocking a secret suitcase, to solve the mystery of a missing crown.

The only way to advance through the game is by completing addition and subtraction problems which progress in difficulty from one level to another. It is an effective complement to fundamental concepts learnt in school, driving proficiency of Math skills.

DetecThink is the only math digital edu-tainment platform which uniquely combines three important elements of active learning, gaming psychology and immersive storytelling. This is the magic of DETECTHINK.

DetecThink is free to download from iTunes, App Store and children can play the first 4 chapters of the story for free! The mobile game app is suitable for primary school children from 6-10 years old. Parents can customize the level according to their child's ability. The game comes in 5 level settings from numbers 0 to 10; all the way to numbers 999.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
