This new ‘Pylon Town’ app includes 7 brand new games that are aimed at delivering knowledge, safety and attitudes towards electricity. The 7 games are: * Blackout – Pylon Town has lost power and the Mayor needs you! Help Pylonman to restore power by avoiding pesky squirrels and pigeons, chase away the culprits and avoid the gaps. * Watch Out! – Help the Sparks family to be aware of what items are in the house that can potentially harm them. Explore three rooms of their home and point out the dangers. Watch out though – electricity is scary! * Circuits – Archie Sparks has broken his train set; can you help him fix it by making circuits with switches, cables, bulbs and batteries? Help learn the symbols in the circuits by switching the graphics on and off. * Power Guzzlers – This game is all about energy efficiency within the home. Help Pylonman protect the house and zap the pesky, inefficient appliances before they attack and eventually destroy the house. * Shiny Happy Customers – Residents of Pylon Town come in all shapes and sizes. For some reason there is a lot of power cuts happening, we need your help to get to each house on time and try to collect useful items at the same time. This is a driving game which gets face paced and very tricky! * Total Power – This game is all about powering up the UK with electricity. You will need to add units to the map and click on the generator button to generate power. You get the chance to learn about and use all equipment that we need to distribute electricity to our 7.9 million customers across the UK. * Time For Change – Welcome to the future! This game starts off in the year 2070 and people have not looked after the planet. Help Pylonman to collect evidence to show everyone and help change how people treat our planet.
