Learning Factory is a more peaceful version of factory building. Automated extraction/production lines come to the rescue and their creation is the main mechanic of the game. You discover that it will take a very long time to extract and craft the necessary resources manually, and the surrounding monsters are not ready to wait. Some games like Factorio and Satisfactory look like crafting sandboxes but soon become much more than that. Using new game analytics, online courses and bootcamps, they help players identify their game and life skills, develop them and link game players to new work and educational opportunities.
Game Academy is a tech venture that helps game players make the most of their in-game talent out of game. We've worked with Game Academy on this list of games that help prepare players for an era where organisations are being rewritten daily, business processes reimagined and the labour market is driven by fusion skills - humans and machines coming together to form new kinds of jobs and work experiences. Organising tasks and distributing work in the name of efficiency and effectiveness is also a common feature of many games. The good news is that the process of transferring work tasks to computers and automated mechanisms is something they can try their hand at in the games in this list. As a result, growing, managing and relating to machines are and will be important skills for children to develop.
It can even be gaining a sense of scale of the universe in a game like Everything.Īutomation is hailed as the future of work and industry is set for economic rebound. It can be the way different elements combine properties in games like Zelda Breath of the Wild. It can be the embodied understanding of gravity and momentum in real-time physics games like Portal. This can be the simple chemical puzzle-solving of a game like Sokobond. It's true not just about their game that unlocks the wonder of chemistry, but about many other games that often get children doing science without even realising it. That quote from the creators of Happy Atoms inspired this list of games. Knowledge of chemistry or other sciences is necessary to solve many real-world problems, but the way it's taught now often fails to capture students’ imaginations, discouraging experimentation and discovery."
"Science is an incredibly important subject that many students never fully grasp. Physics, Chemistry and Biology is something for the nerds, geeks and highly intelligent children at school and not for us or our children. Science can be a subject that many of us see as something for other people.
