Cave Bro is on the Loose!
If you’ve ever wanted to see what happens when you feed a caveman nothing but cupcakes, now’s your chance.
Florida Virtual School recently released Cave Bro in both the Google Play and iTunes stores. This free game teaches students how to make good nutritional choices in a fun and fast-paced style. Students can also experience Cave Bro in upcoming releases of the FLVS Health and PE courses.
Cave Bro has been frozen for more than 30,000 years, so needless to say he’s hungry and will eat anything. It’s up to players to decide what he eats, how much, and how often. Good choices win. Bad choices create one really cranky caveman.
“I thought that the game is an excellent way for kids to learn more about what they eat and how it makes your body feel afterwards.” — FLVS Student
Each selection fed to your Cave Bro is broken down into Fruits, Veggies, Grains, Proteins, and Dairy and is highlighted in the food plate provided. With the plate as a guide, players receive points and gem rocks for making healthy choices and feeding Cave Bro balanced meals. Each round gets tougher, and new levels unlock more challenging food selections and locations.
FLVS joined forces with Fablevision, a leading media and interactive development studio, to create the game. Learn more at http://flvs.net/cavebro.
