High quality animations and appealing sounds spark interest and intrinsic motivation to explore the environment and experiment with personal style without judgement. Films can be made by using an in-app screen recording function and using the child’s microphone to create voiceovers, facilitating children to practice language and conversation between characters. Toca Life World offers children an opportunity to create stories and experiment with different characters and styles, and freely engage in open-ended play with an interactive environment. The game begins with 9 free buildings, but in-app purchases are required to progress further. The player controls the game and there are numerous possibilities to satisfy their imagination. Characters can play by themselves or with other characters, such as giving grandma a green hairstyle, or bringing a sloth to a theme park.

Players can enter and explore the different locations, build characters and shoot ‘films’ within the game, which can spark creativity, playfulness and imagination. The self-directed game is divided into different towns with buildings, such as the mall or hairdresser. This app combines the other Toca Boca apps in an all-in-one app. Toca Life World is an open-ended, recreational app for players to create stories, characters and roles, as they navigate the world they have built.
