For years, Tonka trucks have been a craze in the toy market.
Now, they invade the technology market.

 

What boy doesn't love to play trucks? Now, Tonka has invented a way to bring us even more trucks in a series of three software titles which will bring the metal versions into a movie star category. Youngsters everywhere will soon pass the time playing with their favorite trucks in a new medium.

Tonka Construction will bring the joy of creating a road and of discovering what kind of roads can be built! Here you can repair the scrapes, repaint your cars and even learn miscellaneous facts about your vehicles. On top of it all, like magic, you can see those 3D vehicles circulating the roads you've built and and you can even obtain a certificate for your good work.

It is also possible to make buildings. Begin with a truck to tear up the ground and finish with the famous celebration of a red ribbon ground-cutting ceremony. Then choose from 3D grounds, castles and buildings and start building!.

Within the bad times of winter, there are plenty of days where our young ones are not allowed to go outside to play because of snow storms. Now, instead of being angry against that snow, they can conquer the mountain and the snow and thus obtain a new certificate.

All the steps are very well illustrated and very easy to understand of comprehension. Your child can point-and-click and follow the steps himself.

It is quite a big game, and if you fear that your children cannot understand, it is possible for them to point-and-click on the cellular telephone for help and the game will tell them how that stage can be completed. Nothing in the game is difficult and it is very entertaining. Even parents can learn things with this marvellous software.

I'm sure that you've said to yourself at some time that it is impossible to find a software title that would be so easy that the children would be able to play without the help of an adult.

With Tonka Construction, the children will not need your help to play the game, however, it will be necessary for you to put your screen in 256 colors before they boot up the game, otherwise the software will never start correctly. But once this is done, the game will amuse and entertain your children, and at the time of the storms, liberate them and you from the boring days of the Snows!
