Guildlings helps kids practice and improve the following skills:

Planning: Developing a systematic approach for setting and achieving goals.

In order to win battles in Guildings, the player needs to end the encounter with some charge left in their cellphone. They do this by executing moves that provide extra battery power, as well as moves that affect their overall emotional state. Players need to plan out the order of their moves to ensure that they end the encounter with charge left on their phone and in an emotional state which will allow them to execute other moves within the game. For players who struggle with planning, they may need to enter into additional encounters until they get to the emotional state they need. 

Self-Awareness: Caring and connecting emotionally with others. 

Many of the game's mechanics rely on what mood the characters are in. Certain actions will affect how the characters feel and this can determine whether or not they are able to level up, cast spells, and perform certain actions during encounters. The player is able to have Coda respond to the other characters by selecting from several options. These options range from kind to impatient to energetic; the character responds in a unique way based on what you choose to have Coda say. The player needs to use their self-awareness skills to read the situation and know which response would be the best to use in the situation at hand.
