Reach for the Sun is a stunningly illustrated plant growth learning game aligned to Common Core and Next Generation Science standards. Through delicately constructed gameplay, players are tasked with growing their own plant from a seedling, defending it against insects, and helping it survive
to the end of the year. To achieve victory, players must help their flower endure till the end of the year, exploring topics like photosynthesis and plant life cycles along the way.
