Storywish books take a few minutes to make. While you wait, kids can play 20 built-in games, including a jigsaw, a memory match and a word search made from the characters in their story.
A book usually takes two to four minutes to make. While it does, the games open right there, sorted the way kids pick them.
Bonk (bounce a ball to break the bricks), Crumble Toss (flick paper balls into a basket), Snake, Floppy Bird, Pong, Wall Ball (trap bouncing balls with walls you draw), Jet Wings (fly a jet and blast the aliens) and Poodle Jump.
Fluid Fun (swirl colors with a finger), Paint (draw on a blank page or trace a character), Sandbox (sand and water that pile up against the walls you draw), Make Melodies (write a song and download it), Tear the Cloth and Dive Bird.
Memory Match (pairs of your own characters), Block Bars, Jigsaw Puzzle (a picture of your story's characters), Dots and Boxes, Word Search (your characters' names hidden in the grid) and Tic Tac Toe.
Most of the games can be played by two at once on the same phone or tablet, among them Bonk, Memory Match, Snake, Pong, Jet Wings, Dots and Boxes and Tic Tac Toe. Pick two players and play with your kid while the book is being made.
The sand, water and cloth games show cause and effect. Memory Match, the jigsaw and the word search work memory and spelling, Dots and Boxes and Tic Tac Toe take a plan, and Paint and Make Melodies are for making something of their own.
Nobody has to play. The book keeps being made if you close a game, and its card at the top shows how far along it is. When it's done, tap Read your story to open it.
If you leave before it's finished, we email you when your book is ready.
