I could totally see this being used in a classroom as an activity during indoor recess or in the morning before morning meeting while students are trickling in. I think what was so great is that it allows for a lot of freedom, and the students could make up their own games.
When I started I was pretty frustrated because I couldn’t figure out how to get it to work, but once I got the hang of it, I started to have fun. And then it got even more exciting because I was able to design my own game. What I loved was that it “stretched” my brain but it didn’t feel like super hard work. I was definitely thinking, but I was having fun while I was doing it.
I could definitely see see this being used in a kindergarten classroom, and it would be interesting to see the kinds of things that the children could come up with. If it were me, I would start them with the flappy bird because it was really straightforward but had a lot of customization potential.
