App Research

An app that we like is 'Dumb Ways to Die'. The way this app works is a series of quick games with a simple objective and a time limit. You have to complete the game before the time runs out and the games get progressively faster as you advance further. Below are some screen shots from 'Dumb Ways to Die'.





We think this style of app could work well for our idea. We could have a series of simple games that teach the children a new fire safety tip.

We have chosen fire as our emergency and here is some information we looked at and helped inform our research
