Winter's Tail - How One Little Dolphin Learned to Swim Again — About this game
Winter's Tail - How One Little Dolphin Learned to Swim Again presents the story of Winter, a dolphin learning to swim again after losing her tail. Narrated scenes and facts about dolphins sit alongside mini-games, so the experience alternates listening and reading with short interactive tasks. Begin with the story rather than treating every screen as a separate challenge: the scene gives context to the next activity. Read its objective, follow the displayed action and return to the narrative when finished. Take time to look at the pictures and facts as well as completing the task, since learning about Winter is the thread connecting the activities.
