Instructional Ideas
- See who can get through the most levels in a given amount of time
- Allow individuals or groups to work on the game in free periods or when they finish with other work
Classroom Considerations
- All navigation is through the keyboard; game will not work as well on tablets with only touchscreens
- Ads on either side of the game may be distracting
- Game is not overtly Christmas themed, besides a Santa interlude between levels and jingle bell music
Pros
- Learners can start a level over without affecting their progress through previous levels
- Requires class members to use logic and strategy
Cons
- None
