China’s TribePlay has announced that the studio’s Dr. Panda series of mobile educational games has accumulated 10 million downloads worldwide.
“The US and Europe are our biggest markets,” said TribePlay CEO Thijs Bosma. “What we see with every title that we launch is that we gather a bigger user base because they recognise the Dr. Panda name.”
The Dr. Panda series is available for iOS and Android devices. The edugame titles focus on helping younger children to manage real life situations, rather than traditional topics like reading and mathematics.
“Our educational values are centred more on life skills,” said Bosma. “We get kids familiar with how stuff works in the real world. I think this approach is very popular with parents. These educational values are very important.”
