What the game does

Mašinka and Friends is a calm game about a single train ride. The child wakes the little engine, taps the green GO, greets the cow on the tracks, picks up friends at the stations, crosses the bridge and the tunnel and brings everyone home. The game never ends in a loss.

How to play

  1. Tap the big Wake up button and the engine wakes.
  2. Before every stretch, tap the green GO.
  3. A friend waits at the station: tap their photo and they hop into the carriage.
  4. On the way, ring the bell, whistle at the cow and switch the lights on in the tunnel.
  5. At home the friends appear in the windows of the little house and the child gets a sticker for the collection. When it is all too much, the moon at the bottom right opens a calm depot.

What else it can do

  • Your own toys: photograph them and the background is removed for you. The toys then wait at the stations.
  • Your voice: record your own voice for the lines in the game (5 seconds at most). Whatever you do not record is read by the device voice.
  • Different rides: a cow, a bridge, a tunnel, a level crossing with barriers, a signal, a water tower, seasons and a track you put together yourself.
  • A sticker collection, one for each finished ride.
  • A calm depot with a breathing circle when the child needs to slow down.
  • No losing, no error sounds, no flashing.
  • The parent section is behind pressing and holding the cogwheel, so a child will not open it by accident.
  • Flying animals: balloons, butterflies, birds and bees now and then drift across the sky and can be popped. In settings a parent chooses whether they appear sometimes, more often or not at all.
  • A tap anywhere lights up sparks and plays a note, so the child sees and hears at once that the game responds.
  • Backup: with one button you save the settings, toy photos and your recorded voices to a file and load them again on a new phone. The file goes only where you send it.

10 languages

The game opens in your device's language (Czech, Slovak, English, Spanish, German, Russian, French, Ukrainian, Polish, Vietnamese); any other device language gives English. To change it: hold the cog at the top right, open the Game tab and choose Game language. Recordings are saved separately for each language.

Privacy

Mašinka collects no personal data and has no accounts, ads or analytics. Photos, voice recordings and settings stay only on the device you play on. The microphone is used only to record lines when a parent holds the button in settings, and the camera only to photograph toys.

Why I made it

I made Mašinka for my son. He does not speak yet and knows only about ten words. But he tries very hard – he uses his hands, his feet and sounds to help himself. He loves trains more than anything, so I made this game for him.

He likes to win, and losing can upset him to tears. That is why you cannot lose in Mašinka: no error sounds, no red crosses, no flashing, calm colors and big buttons.

The friends at the stations are his own toys from photos, welcomed by a parent's voice. Now I offer the game for free to other families too, without ads.
