The controls are all self-explanatory, and there are no complicated menus or buttons. The interface is very simple and easy to use. However, the game is still very visually appealing, and the simple graphics work well for the target audience. The environments are all very basic, and there is no detail in the character or object models. The graphics in Toca Boo are very simple and child-like. There is no scoring system and no ending to the game.
The game is played in first-person view and has no goals or objectives outside of scaring humans. Players can use a variety of tools to scare humans, such as making objects fly around the room, making themselves invisible, and making scary sounds. The objective of the game is to scare as many humans as possible before the sun comes up. Toca Boo is a virtual reality game where players take on the role of a ghost named Boo. Along the way, they will learn to recognize different emotions, and how to express them. The child's goal is to help the ghosts book, Sneezy, and Dopey) find their way back to the light. The app is based on a child's fear of the dark and takes them on a journey through a haunted house. It is designed for children ages 4 and up and helps teach them about emotions, facial expressions, and body language. We mixed that inspiration with a lot of crazy humor to create the unique experience of Toca Boo.Toca Boo is a spooky, yet fun, educational app for kids. I found inspiration in reading “Who Will Comfort Toffle?” with my own daughter and watching her become fascinated by the magical, melancholic atmosphere in Tove Jansson’s world of the Moomins. Why did we chose to do an app that is a bit scary? What was the inspiration?Ĭhris: In this project I wanted to explore a rather unusual mood in apps for children: spooky, a little scary, and full of tension - the mood that makes hide-and-scare games so exciting. Play Designer Chris Lindgren offers some more insights: Some parents have asked us for advice on how they can guide their kids when playing with Toca Boo. Any child (or grown-up!) playing with this digital toy is in charge of spooking - which is timely at Halloween, but also a general topic that’s good to think about for young kids. If you’ve played with Toca Boo, you may have noticed that it is a bit darker and more mystical than many of our previous apps.
