Parent Pro-Tip
Crazy Machines 2 is an excellent choice for developing critical thinking and creativity. Encourage your child to experiment with different solutions and share their contraptions with the online community. While there's an online component for sharing, direct chat with strangers is not present, making it a relatively safe social environment. The game has no hidden costs or aggressive monetization.
