How It Works
Simple Tools. Endless Possibilities.
Sandbox Terrestrial is designed to be easy to start and fun to explore. There are no instructions to memorize and no goals you have to follow. You choose what to build, how to build it, and when to change it.
Everything starts with an icon.
Step 1: Choose Your Icons
Browse the icon grid and pick any icon you want—blocks, elements, animals, or space objects.
Each icon is a building piece you can use on its own or combine with others. You can add one icon or many. There’s no limit to what you can choose.
Step 2: Build Your World
Sandbox Terrestrial is designed to be easy to start and fun to explore. There are no instructions to memorize and no goals you have to follow. You choose what to build, how to build it, and when to change it.
Everything starts with an icon.
Step 3: Explore & Experiment
There’s no “finish line” in Sandbox Terrestrial.
Some kids build tall structures.
Some create small scenes.
Some try every icon just to see what happens.
All of these are valid ways to play. The sandbox responds to curiosity, not instructions.
Step 4: Get Inspired
Visit the Videos page to see how other kids use icons in different ways.
These videos are meant to spark ideas, not tell you what to do. Watch one, then jump back into the sandbox and try something new.
