About

Gentle Games is a free, open-source mobile app built with calm, non-competitive gameplay in mind. It now includes six different sensory-friendly mini-games (Memory Snap, Drawing Pad, Glitter Fall, Bubble Pop, Category Match, and Keepy Uppy). Every design decision — soft pastel colors, optional sounds, toggleable animations — is made to be welcoming for children who experience visual or auditory sensitivities.

Games

🧩

Memory Snap

A calm memory-matching game where players flip tiles to find pairs. Multiple difficulty levels, three themes (animals, shapes, mixed), live timer, and gentle completion celebration.

🎨

Drawing Pad

A free-form drawing canvas. Pen, eraser, and shape tools, 9 preset colors plus a full color picker, undo support, and a clean white canvas with maximum screen space.

✨

Glitter Fall

A calming snow globe where kids can add glitter, shake to swirl, and watch particles gently drift. Touch to interact; mobile motion sensor support with web fallback.

🫧

Bubble Pop

Soft bubbles float down the screen. Tap to pop and track a simple count. Keeps at least two bubbles on-screen for continuous calm fun.

🗂️

Category Match

Drag the emoji into the correct category (Sky, Land, or Ocean). Gentle feedback and an endless stream of friendly icons make it great for sorting practice.

🎈

Keepy Uppy

Tap the balloon to keep it from falling. Includes an easy mode setting for younger children and soft, endless gameplay.

  • Animations can be turned off at any time
  • No flashing lights or jarring visuals
  • Large touch targets for small fingers
  • Calm, non-competitive gameplay — no scores, no timers that penalize
