Inside the game

Tools that make learning stick

Backpack

Everything your kid collects lives here: items from each zone and their badges.

Net-ionary

A kid-friendly dictionary. Words like "router" and "packet" get simple explanations and pictures.

Club badges

Each zone ends with a badge that also counts in the wider club, across every game.

For parents

What your kid will be able to explain

  • How a device connects to the internet and what a router does
  • What IP addresses, packets and DNS are, in their own words
  • What happens between clicking a link and seeing a page
  • How email travels, and how to keep passwords and personal details safe

Safe inside Net City

Net City never links out to the open web, has no chat, and shows no ads. Progress is saved to the parent's account, under a nickname.
