Alien Tour Guide Lite

iOS iPhone

Taking a family trip this summer? Get Alien Tour Guide Lite and become the family expert on U.S. states and important national landmarks. Both educational and entertaining, Alien Tour Guide Lite features cartoon space aliens, outrageous science fiction sound effects, and animated UFO landings!

Two game modes are included. In "states only" mode you're given the proper name of a U.S. state. Identify the state on your U.S. map using the touchscreen and Booyah! An alien ship lands on the spot. Touch wrong and three states are highlighted to help you along. You'll be able to locate all 50 states in no time with blinding speed and precision!

"Grand tour" mode is a little harder. Here you're given a major U.S. landmark to locate. Touch on the state where the landmark is located and land those aliens at their destination. Thirty landmarks of interest are included in this light version. Landmark types include: key historic sites, national parks and monuments, places in the news, sites of cultural interest, even some state and city nicknames. You'll get 'em down in no time, and may even discover a place or two you'd like to visit.

Detailed scores are given following each round of ten randomly generated questions. Challenge your parents, teachers, and friends to see who can get the highest score!

Application is well tested and widely enjoyed -- ages 6 to adult.
