Ideas for using the Shopping Cart template

The logic of the game refers to the shopping basket into which we put the products.

Fun and Education - Replace the default objects in the template with a set of graphics on a selected theme, e.g. nature, fairy tales. Encourage children to play actively.

Events and Entertainment - Replace the default background in the template with a graphic with the slogan of your event. Include names or elements related to the event on the falling object graphics.

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.
