Aimed at young nature enthusiasts, iBiome-Ocean offers an engaging way for children to delve into ecosystems, food webs, and the impact of human activities on the environment.

In the app, kids can interact with food webs, discerning the roles of different plants and animals within the chain. Through manipulating predators, prey, consumers, and producers, they can observe the ripple effects within the food web.

For a trial experience, users can download the complimentary lite version before making a purchase.

Acclaimed with the Parents' Choice Gold Award and the gold medal from Mom’s Choice Awards, iBiome-Ocean has been lauded for its educational value:

“This app invites many return visits in which enthusiastic young marine biologists continue to learn more about their favorite species.” – Parents’ Choice Gold Award

“iBiome-Ocean allowed my students to discover how food chains and webs work because they could manipulate them using what they read in their science textbooks. I have taught for 38 years, and this is one of the best products to teach ecology that I have used. It teaches students the phenomena of real-life food webs.” – Gr.6 science teacher from California US

“The iBiome games bring the science curriculum to life! Building food chains and observing changes in food chains as species are added to each dome really helped my students understand ecosystem interactions…The iBiome games are a fun addition to my science classroom.” – Gr.3 science teacher from Ontario Canada

iBiome-Ocean is a follow-up to the award-winning iBiome-Wetland app. The iBiomes series aims to foster scientific literacy and critical thinking among children by encouraging curiosity, experimentation, and observation within different biomes.
