"In 2010, we began our journey with Dora the Explorer as our very first partner. Today, many of the parents downloading our apps are the same ones who grew up watching the original show.

Bringing the Show to Life for a New Era: Dora: Explore and Play! is designed to feel like an interactive episode of the new DORA series. While it features modern 3D visuals and updated character designs, the gameplay focuses on the classic "Play-Along" pillars: active participation, problem-solving, music, and bilingual exploration.
