Beautiful illustrations are mixed into some low quality interactive design, in this natural science exploration experience. There are two other apps in the series, with a similar design; all from Chili-based Ediciones Liebre Limitada. Your objective is to explore a nicely illustrated map in search of eggs. The eggs lead to a detail page, where you try to figure out which creature is associated with the eggs. You do this by tapping on items on the screen, to find seven hidden clues. This is frustrating, because the clues have little to do with the creature you're looking for; and the items that need to be tapped are often small. Fortunately there is a hint option. Testers noted that the font is too small, even on a large iPad Pro. It is possible to record your own narration. The content comes from the well-illustrated book ¡Crack!, also by Ediciones Liebre. Options let you toggle between English and Spanish. Some of the animal facts are very interesting. The English narration is not polished. Created by Rocket Smash Studio for Ediciones Liebre. This app was submitted to the 2021 BolognaRagazzi Crossmedia Award. There are no ethical concerns.
