A town where practice feels like play.
Yggy's Village is a free-play town for children aged 5 to 11. They bake, dress up, keep pets and drive cars. The town's characters ask for help with short reading, spelling and math jobs, and every job pays in coins. You get a plain report of what they practised. It runs as an app on your family's iPad, works offline, and has no accounts and nothing sent anywhere unless you hand it over yourself: a backup file, Share this week, or the AI-helper report.

A whole town to drag, tap and explore, with no timer and no wrong way to play.
A job is three questions. A worked example comes first, and help comes after a miss.
What was practised, what is stuck and why, and one thing to do this week.
How a job works
Walk into a place.
The baker, the shopkeeper or the potion maker asks: "Can you help me? I have three little jobs."
Answer three questions.
Reading, spelling or math, chosen from a skill tree that starts below your child's grade and climbs when answers go well. Every question is tapped or dragged, never typed, unless you turn typing on.
Spend the coins.
Pets, hats, furniture and cars. Coins never buy answers, and nothing in the town is sold for real money.
For the grown-ups
Open the grown-ups' page on any day and see the week at a glance: days played, minutes, tasks, and what to look at first. On Sunday evening the town writes a short review of the week. Nothing in it is a score.
See the reports →Who it is for
- Children aged 5 to 11, from kindergarten through grade 5, with content that reaches past that for a child who is ready.
- Two or more children in one home. Each has their own character, coins and report. An older child can read stories aloud to a younger one, and both earn.
- A little mode for a 3 or 4 year old who wants to play too: spoken asks, big pictures, no red.
- An iPad your family already has. It runs as an app, opened from an icon on the home screen, and works offline after the first open.
What the town earns goes somewhere.
Past the Gate is the Wilds, an open world your child explores and builds in. Pets, cars, forged tools and potions earned in the town are waiting there. The Wilds is an add-on for families with a home computer that can stay on. It runs on that computer, on the open-source Luanti engine.

We are opening Yggy's Village to a small number of families first, so we can learn what works in a real home. Join the list and we will write when a place is ready.
