KalSheela

Kal Sheela is an educational strategy puzzle game that I developed to help children learn about different animal groups through fun and interactive gameplay. The objective is to strategically match three or more animals belonging to the same animal group, encouraging logical thinking, observation, and problem-solving skills. The game offers three difficulty levels—Easy, Medium, and Hard—to provide an enjoyable experience for players of different ages and skill levels. Easy Mode: Features a custom-designed hint algorithm that uses particle effects to highlight nearby tiles that can create a valid match, helping younger players understand the gameplay mechanics. Medium Mode: Removes the hint system, encouraging players to rely on their observation and strategic thinking. Hard Mode: Presents the greatest challenge, requiring quick decisions and careful planning without any visual assistance. To make the game both entertaining and educational, the most frequently matched animal is displayed at the end of each game along with an interesting fun fact about that animal. This reinforces learning while keeping children engaged.
