Box Island is a mobile game that takes boys and girls on an exciting adventure, while teaching the fundamentals of coding.

Rendered in a beautiful 3D game world featuring 100 levels, where the first 10 levels are free, Box Island is a story-driven journey that keeps kids highly engaged and motivated while playing.
