Learning Doesn't Need to Be Loud.

Introducing Back 2 Basic, an early education game designed with a simple truth: learning happens in a calm, focused environment. Genuine education doesn't require flashy distractions or constant over-stimulation. Instead, I've designed a low-stimulus and special needs friendly experience that puts learning first. Back 2 Basic offers a refreshing alternative, putting the focus squarely on learning for Pre-K to 1st graders, removing the distracting clutter to provide a thoughtfully designed tool to aid parents and teachers.

Young learners have short attention spans. That's why Back 2 Basic is designed for effective learning in under 20-minutes. Each lesson visually centers your child's focus, creating a nurturing environment free from unnecessary distractions. Gain insight into their progress with digestible player statistics, empowering you to make informed decisions about their learning journey.

Key Features

  • Foundational Curriculum: Lessons cover early math (addition, subtraction, counting, quantity, currency), telling time, basic shapes, color recognition and mixing, alongside sequencing, multi-step instructions, memory, and letter/number/sight word recognition.

  • Purposefully Low-Stimulus Design: Crafted with softened colors, gentle animations, and minimal sound cues to create a calm and focused learning environment, particularly beneficial for neurodivergent children and those prone to over-stimulation.

  • Unparalleled Parental Customization: Empowering tools let you tailor every aspect of the learning journey, including adding personalized spelling lists and recording your own voice instructions for a truly bespoke experience.

  • Completely Ad-Free & Microtransaction-Free: No hidden costs, in-app purchases, or nasty monetization strategies.

  • Actionable Insights: Digestible player statistics offer parents and educators a genuine understanding of a child's learning patterns, strengths, and areas for growth, supporting informed educational decisions.

  • Thoughtful Behavioral Support: Incorporates subtle design mechanics aimed at reducing potential self-stimulatory behaviors, fostering a more productive learning experience.

  • Direct Developer Collaboration: An open channel for community feedback, inviting suggestions for new lessons or features, and ensuring the game evolves directly with the needs of the community.
