Educator's Review: Color Theory is a challenging puzzle platformer where you play a colored character who can change colors by passing through different colored plus signs. He can pass through platforms that are of the same color, so changing colors by using the plus signs sprinkled around each level helps you progress through the level. While players may not learn about color theory simply by playing, this game can be incorporated into a lesson on the topic and serve as a hands on tool that allows students to manipulate colors and see the results of changing primary and secondary colors. Cognitive flexibility will help in this game, where you have to look around the level to see not just what is, but what could be if the colors were changed. This is a true platform game that requires timing and and sharp visual spatial skills to complete each level.
Please Note: In addition to the color changing puzzle aspect, this game is also challenging platformer that sometimes requires tricky timing. This may be difficult for players with poor fine motor control, poor visual spatial skills, or who get anxious when they can't control the speed of gameplay.
