Introduction
Games that kids play are usually not very easy to translate onto a tablet or phone, simply due to the fact they usually contain some physical activity. Hide and Seek or Tag are impossible to mimic on a tablet, simply because the fun is in the action.
The best role playing apps for the iPhone
Developer Scimob has, however, succeeded in bringing one of the childhood favorite games app to the iPad and iPhone.
94 Degrees is an iPhone games app that uses the concept of hot and cold to make you look for all kinds of different objects, and will help you to learn about geography, biology and tons of other subjects at the same time.

Gameplay
The gameplay is pretty easy to explain. You will see a black and white overview in one of the subjects and you are supposed to tap where you would like to put a pin. This pin will be used to explain if you’re hot (close to the object) or cold (far away). The objective is to get as close as possible in the first go, or simply guess the place of the object correctly.

The game starts out really easy, but after playing for a few minutes you will notice that the game will get harder and harder. You can use specific power-ups if you really get stuck. For example, you can use the compass power up that will make all the pins you’ve put on the image to point to the right direction.
Even if you have two pins, you should be able to extrapolate the right place. The coins you make by finishing levels are used for these, but these coins can of course also be bought for real-world money.
Who is this game made for?
At first, when playing around with this app, I thought this app was specifically designed as an education app to have children discover all kinds of subjects in all kinds of ways.

When I played for a longer time, I noticed the subjects were getting more difficult and challenging, and quickly found out this can be a game enjoyed by everyone. I would have liked to see more color in the images, but this might also make it more difficult to spot certain objects.
