Catch template - learn the recipe for the interactive fun!
Game logic
On the board, objects fall from above and you have to catch them before they hide behind the bottom edge of the board. Thumbnails of caught objects are displayed at the bottom of the board. For each object caught, players score a point. The fun can end after the set time of the game.

Ideas for using the Catch template
The logic of Catch refers to leaflets scattered by planes or dropped from a balloon. Let your imagination run wild and use the idea of messages falling from the sky.
Fun and Education - Replace the default objects in the template with a set of graphics on a selected theme, e.g. nature - leaves, mathematics - shapes, language - syllables and words, occasional - envelopes, hearts, cupcakes, etc. at the bottom of the board to create a specific pattern. Encourage children to play actively, either on their own or moderated by a teacher.
Events and Entertainment - Replace the default background in the template with a graphic with the slogan of your event. Put names or elements related to the event on the graphics of falling objects.
Promotion and Advertising - Replace the default objects in the template with your brand logo. Use a background with your corporate identity. Use the template to promote social and product campaigns and upcoming cultural events.
