# About Alphabet Safari

Alphabet Safari is a charming and interactive educational game designed to help children learn the alphabet in a fun and engaging way. Set against a colorful safari backdrop of sky and land, your mission is to journey through the entire alphabet from A to Z. For each letter, a corresponding animal emoji will appear on screen. You must identify the correct letter to advance on your safari adventure!

The game features a simple and cheerful art style, using familiar animal emojis that children will love. With simple sound effects for correct and incorrect answers, players receive immediate feedback on their choices. The goal is to complete the entire alphabet and get the highest score possible by answering correctly.

## How to Play

The objective of Alphabet Safari is to correctly identify the starting letter for 26 animals, one for each letter of the alphabet in sequential order.

- **Start the Game:** Press the "Start Game" button on the main screen.
- **Identify the Target:** Look at the top-right of the screen to see which letter you need to find (e.g., "Find: A").
- **Find the Animal:** An animal emoji will be displayed somewhere on the screen.
- **Input Your Answer:** Use your keyboard to press the letter you think is correct, or use the on-screen buttons on a mobile device.
- **Scoring:** You get +10 points for a correct answer and lose 5 points for an incorrect one.
- **Progression:** When you answer correctly, the screen will flash, and the game will automatically move to the next letter in the alphabet.
- **Winning:** The game concludes after you successfully find the animal for the letter 'Z'. Your final score will then be displayed.

## Features

- **Full A-Z Learning:** Progress through the entire alphabet sequentially, reinforcing letter order and recognition.
- **Dual Control Scheme:** Fully playable with a keyboard on desktop computers or with intuitive on-screen touch buttons on mobile phones and tablets.
- **Engaging Safari Theme:** A bright, colorful environment and a variety of animal emojis make learning feel like an adventure.
- **Instant Feedback System:** Receive immediate audio and visual cues (a screen flash for correct answers) to help reinforce learning.
- **Score-Based Challenge:** A simple scoring system encourages accuracy and adds a fun, competitive element to the game.

## Controls

- **Keyboard:** Press the letter key (A-Z) that matches the target letter shown at the top of the screen.
- **Mouse / Touch (Mobile):** Four letter-choice buttons will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap the button with the correct letter.

## Tips & Strategies

- **Focus on the Prompt:** Always check the "Find:" prompt at the top of the screen. The animal emoji is just a fun visual; the prompt tells you exactly which letter you're looking for.
- **Maximize Your Score:** To get a high score, try to answer correctly on your first attempt for every letter. Guessing can quickly lower your score.
- **Anticipate the Next Letter:** The game always follows the alphabet in order (A, B, C...). You can prepare for the next letter as soon as you answer one correctly.
