The dragon must get around an obstacle to reach the egg!

  • Update the program so that Dash avoids the obstacle and reaches the egg. Dash should use the Obstacle Seen cue to avoid the obstacle.
  • Dash should use the Dash or Dot Seen cue to find Dot.
  • When the dragon reaches the egg, it should make a Happy sound.

Level 3

The dragon must get around multiple obstacles to reach its egg. When the egg is saved, help the baby dragon hatch by shaking, tapping, and tapping it.

  • Add two more obstacles between the dragon and its egg. These should be randomly placed!
  • Program Dash to navigate through the obstacles and reach the egg.
  • When the dragon reaches the egg, it should make a Happy sound.
  • Program the egg (Dot) so that it reacts to being shaken, tilted, and tapped.
