؜Mastaba Masters is a card-and-piece educational game where players build a mastaba-shaped, symbolizing the step-by-step growth of language skills from basic vocabulary to complex grammar. By combining strategy, collaboration, and cultural context, it transforms language learning into an engaging and interactive experience. Research on gamified learning shows it drives real results, with learners achieving 37% higher completion rates and 29% greater satisfaction, making this game a proven, motivating path to fluency.

؜Light It Up! is an educational board game that combines interactive gameplay with Arduino-based electronics to teach players about e-waste management and energy efficiency. By moving through four zones, Collection, Hazard, Innovation, and Processing, players experience the challenges and rewards of sustainable practices.

In 2022, an estimated 62 million tonnes of e-waste were produced globally. Only 22.3% was documented as formally collected and recycled (WHO, 2024).

Project Statement

We seek to create a version of Battleship that abstracts and enhances the relationship between siblings as rivals through modifying the physical design of the game board, pieces, and gameplay mechanics.

Game Testing

1) The Tilting board is very annoying, and makes the game quite difficult to play.

2) The larger side of the board, representing the older sibling, has all of the pieces, and the smaller side has to ask for the pieces; it is very demeaning, just as a sibling rivalry is.

3) We did not put legends on the board, and we will continue to not. It creates chaos, communication issues, and bickering; it's perfect for creating sibling rivalry. It forces players to find new ways to communicate, in a way that siblings can create their own language.

4) We ended up legitimately fighting while playtesting. The game is truly aversive to play, as intended.

Game Elements & Rules

• Game plays with traditional battleship attacking system of coordinate squares, hits, misses, and sinking ships

• The pieces represent things siblings commonly fight over

Game Elements & Rules

Game Elements & Rules

• The 'Tattle Token' is a special piece which the 'younger sibling' starts with.
• The opposing player must tell the tokenholder if one of their misses is adjacent to a ship, and share the location of the square that is adjacent to their ship.
• When used, the token must be given to the other player

Project Statement

Babel is a multiplayer collaborative game that lets players work together to build up a tower using a wide range of pieces. We wanted the game to represent the relationship of communicating with others who don't speak the same language. The goal when playing the game is to build as tall of a tower as possible without it falling over. The tower you build represents the level of communication you are able to achieve.

Game Testing

1) The game is fun to play because the players are able to put the pieces together in so many different ways

2) Lack of specific rules makes the game more fun as it allows players to be creative

3) Game would be more challenging with more pieces as players often play until they run out of pieces

؜Talk Trek is a science-based board game that makes speaking practice fun and supportive for people who stutter. Over 80 million people live with stuttering, and research shows that structured practice in safe, supportive environments can improve communication outcomes by up to 70%. Talk Trek transforms proven techniques like pausing, pacing, and pitch control into engaging conversations, fun facts, and playful challenges, creating a joyful, stress-free way to build confidence, ease anxiety, and reframe communication as connection rather than pressure.
