Free Reaction Time Game for Kids - Summer Shells
Collect sea shells and protect the environment against the clock in this reactions-based, 1 or 2 player arcade game. Summer Shells is a fun, timing and keyboard-based skill game for young children where you dive and collect sea shells from the ocean bed, and return them to the surface to earn points. You can also help the environment (and your score) by retrieving bottles and cans from the ocean.
Reasons to play this online, arrow-key skill game: Test and exercise your hand-eye coordination skills, observation skills, reflexes and timing as you swim around the ocean in search of shells and other points-scoring objects. Play against the computer, or work with a friend, family member or school classmate in the fun 2 player mode. Unleash your competitive side in the VS Mode, or work together as a team!
Strategy to win: Good time management skills are important here as you try to tactfully bring the shells to the surface without running out of oxygen. Be vigilant of jellyfish, sharks and other dangerous hindrances – Any contact with these forces your character to the surface much sooner than planned! Happy shell collecting!
How to Play: A Flash-based, 1 or 2 player skill game for notebook, laptop and desktop PC / Mac (with certain browsers). In 1 Player mode, you must score as many points as you can before the clock at the top of the play area reaches zero (You begin the level with 2 minutes on the clock, but can add to the timer with good play). In order to score points, you must collect shells and other items from the ocean, and return to the surface. Control your swimmer character’s movement with the Arrow Keys on your computer keyboard.
2 Player mode has two distinct options: Team Mode and Versus Mode. In Team Mode, you and a friend or family member playing on the same computer work together to score as many points as possible. In Versus Mode, you are in direct competition. Whoever has the most points when the clock reaches zero is the winner! Player 1 controls the swimmer with the light brown hair using the WASD Keys while Player 2 controls the black-haired swimmer with the Arrow Keys.
Beware of sharks, electric eels and jellyfish. If you come into contact with either of these, you are forced back to the surface, and drop any shells you had collected. Likewise, if you run out of oxygen, you are forced back to the surface with no shells to show for it. Keep an eye on the oxygen bars in the top left and right corners of the play area.
