Comstock Chronicles: iPad Gaming

a lesson from the children

I was sitting on the couch with my daughter watching my son play this game where you navigate a water chute on an inner tube, tank, rooster, or what-have-you. My five-year-old was enjoying himself; my daughter was not.

It was difficult for her to watch her brother drive his tank the wrong direction up a ramp. He would forget to engage his invisibility bubble. He would come in last place. He would choose the snowman character instead of the bikini-clad chick. So she kept interjecting to tell him how to play the game properly.
