Vibes of all kinds are contagious, for better or for worse. In the sunniest corner of town, aggressors are running amok, spreading negativity everywhere. Block and report the aggressors to stop their takeover and be kind to other Internauts to restore the peaceful nature of this land.
Using the right, left, and up arrows to command your Internaut, navigate through Kind Kingdom to pick up hearts to give to sad Internauts throughout the land. By giving them hearts, thumbs up, or high fives, you’ll spread kindness and make them happy.
Be sure to avoid the large yellow Troublemakers who attempt to bring you down with negativity. They’re best left behind fences as you avoid them or look for the bullhorns to report them and they’ll be magically whisked away as you continue your climb to the top of the kingdom.
Mayday! The Tower of Treasure is unlocked, leaving the Internaut’s valuables like contact info and private messages at high risk. Outrun the hacker and build a fortress with strong passwords to secure your secrets once and for all.
Using the arrow keys on the keyboard, kids have to run and jump through the land. Hitting obstacles will cause the hackers to steal their messages and private information with a gleeful cackle.
Arrive at the Tower of Treasure and protect digital information from the hackers using strong passwords. There are 3 different levels for this game and is the easiest game for the youngest ages to play due to easy manipulation of the Interland character and limited reading throughout the game, especially compared to other games.
The mountainous town center of Interland is a place where everyone mingles and crosses paths. But you must be very intentional about what you share and with whom. Information travels at the speed of light, and there’s an oversharer among the Internauts you know.
Mindful Mountain is all about who it’s ok to share content with and lets you share information to different people or the trash by moving laser beams and mirrors
Treat online communication the same as face-to-face communication.
If it isn’t right to say, it isn’t right to post. If in doubt, get guidance on what kind of communication is (and isn’t) OK.
Personal details about family, friends – and yourself – should stay private.
The river that runs through Interland flows with fact and fiction. But things are not always as they seem. To cross the rapids, use your best judgment—and don’t fall for the antics of the phisher lurking in these waters.
In Reality River, players use their mouse to click on the lit hexagonal (six sided shape) pads to see the answers to the questions. Once you have read the options, you will select what you think is the right answer by double clicking it with your mouse or mouse pad. Most questions have three answers to choose from, but some have only 2.
You can try answering the question as many times as you can if you get stuck, windows pop up to provide assistance.
