For grown-ups
SnipPals is a rule game. The scissors cut a paper chain after one colour only. Your child predicts how many pieces there will be, cuts, and then works backwards: here are the pieces, what was the rule?
For you: the helpers that break down food in our bodies (enzymes) work this way, each cutting only at its own pattern. The game does not name them; the Fold Commons pathway does, from age nine.
Nothing is stored or sent. Make a real paper chain together afterwards.
What it never does
- No accounts, no ads, no tracking — anything kept stays on this device.
- No streaks, timers to beat, points to chase or leaderboards.
- No chat, and nothing anyone types is sent anywhere.
