Tinker Roll

For parents and grown-ups

Let's get Rollie rolling again.

Need help with Tinker Roll: Kids STEM Puzzles? These answers cover the main controls and the parent settings.

How do we play?

Tap Play on the title screen and pick a world. Each level shows a spout where Rollie starts, a basket to reach, and a tray of toy pieces at the bottom. Drag a piece onto a dotted spot; it snaps into place. Tap the big Play button and Rollie rolls. If Rollie misses, the level resets by itself and the empty spot wiggles as a hint. There are no timers, lives, or penalties.

Each world starts with a short Lab Card that says its idea out loud. Worlds 1 and 2 (16 puzzles) are free.

Where are the grown-up controls?

Tap the round Grown-ups button at the top right of the title screen or world map and type the answer to the multiplication question on the in-game keypad. Music, sound effects, and reduced motion live in that area. Purchases, Restore purchases, subscription management, privacy information, and outside links are also behind the gate.

Does the game need internet?

Play and saved progress work entirely on the device. Internet access may be needed to load Apple's plans, buy or restore a Family Pass, or manage a subscription. Progress does not sync between devices.

Where is our progress?

Progress is saved on the device as each level is finished and when the app goes to the background. Deleting the app removes its saved progress. Restoring a purchase restores paid access; it does not bring back progress from another device.

How do purchases work?

Worlds 1 and 2 stay free without a Family Pass. The optional pass unlocks worlds 3 to 6, the Tinker Lab sandbox, and Rollie costumes. Apple shows the current plan price, renewal period, and any free trial the Apple Account is eligible for before purchase. The app sells no coins, sparkles, or other consumable currency.

In the grown-up area, choose Family Pass to view plans or Manage Family Pass to open Apple's subscription controls when access is active. Restore purchases is on the Family Pass page. Use the Apple Account that made the original purchase. If Ask to Buy is pending, access starts after Apple confirms approval.

Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the current period ends. A parent can manage or cancel through Apple's subscription settings. Removing the app does not cancel a subscription.

Plans are unavailable. What should we do?

Keep playing the free worlds and try again when the device has internet access. Check that purchases are allowed for the Apple Account and device. Restore purchases remains available from the Family Pass page when plans cannot be loaded.
