Slide words into sounds and back — structured-literacy decoding, fluency & morphology for ages 9–14 reading below grade level, with Segwyn and the decoding crew.

Reason together — a civic & media-literacy reasoning game for ages 15–18. Read laterally to judge a source, steelman an argument, spot the fallacy, deliberate a dilemma toward common ground, and craft a civic message. Selection-based, on-device, no free-text AI grading.

Steady yourself under stress — a mental-health-literacy & CBT-coping-skills game for ages 15–18. Catch an automatic thought, name the distortion, reframe it, and practice grounding — with honest, non-diagnostic explainers and a real help-seeking pathway. Anti-shame, on-device, no mood-tracking.

Read the past like a historian — a historical-thinking & DBQ game for ages 15–18. Tag a document's HIPP, judge reliability, contextualize, corroborate across sources, and build an argument (thesis → evidence → complexity). Selection-based, on-device, no free-text AI grading.

See the change — a precalculus→calculus game for ages 15–18. Predict, then drag a dynamically-linked representation (secant→tangent, Riemann strips, sliders on f) and justify — limits, derivatives, accumulation, and the fundamental theorem, geometry-first. Deterministic, on-device.

Train your ear and your eye — a music-theory & ear-training game for ages 15–18. Hear an interval, chord, or rhythm and identify it; read a staff and name the key; build a scale or triad by selection — with immediate objective feedback and adaptive difficulty. On-device Web Audio.

Write real code — a computer-science & programming game for ages 15–18. Reason through sequencing, conditionals, loops, functions, data structures, recursion, and algorithmic complexity by tracing state and building solutions. Deterministic, on-device.

Predict the motion — a physics game for ages 15–18. Forecast an outcome, then a real model proves you right or shows you why not — kinematics, Newton's laws, energy, momentum, circular motion, waves, fields, and thermodynamics. Predict-observe-explain, on-device.

Make art and music with code — a creative-coding game for ages 15–18. Build generative visuals and sound while learning the structure behind them: iteration, functions, variables, randomness, color, transform, rhythm, and harmony. The anti-passive-consumer wedge. On-device.

Predict what life will do — a biology game for ages 15–18. Forecast an outcome, then a real model proves you right or shows you why not — cells, Mendelian genetics, DNA, evolution, ecology, homeostasis, and bioenergetics. Predict-observe-revise, on-device.

See like a designer — a visual-art & design game for ages 15–18. Predict the harmony, fix the hierarchy, and master the eye — hue/value/saturation, color relationships, balance, emphasis, contrast, Gestalt, perspective, and typography. On-device.

Make real money decisions in a risk-free sim — a personal-finance decision game for ages 15–18. Budget, weigh trade-offs, borrow, save, and plan a goal; watch consequences play out, then reflect — compound growth, opportunity cost, risk, taxes, and inflation. On-device.

Prove it — a geometry & proof game for ages 15–18. Construct with compass and straightedge, drag to find the invariant, and build a formal justification — congruence, similarity, coordinate geometry, circle theorems, transformations, and trigonometry. A diagram isn't a proof; the givens are.

Find your direction — a career & future-agency decision game for ages 15–18. Clarify values and strengths, explore paths, decide under uncertainty, and author a future self — one real decision at a time, with reflection. Anti-evangelism (no 'right' path), on-device.

Read what a text is really doing — a literary-analysis game for ages 15–18. Predict the move, then prove it in the lines — close reading, tone, diction, theme, imagery, syntax, unreliable narration, irony, and rhetorical appeals. Selection-based, on-device, no free-text AI grading.

Predict the reaction — a chemistry game for ages 15–18. Forecast an outcome, then a real model proves you right or shows you why not — stoichiometry, equilibrium, kinetics, acids & bases, gas laws, periodic trends, thermochemistry, and redox. Predict-observe-explain, on-device.

Own how you study — a self-regulated-learning game for ages 15–18. Set a goal, plan the time, and practice the strategies that actually work — retrieval practice, spaced review, self-testing, focus, and encoding — then reflect on what worked. On-device, no tracking.

A gamified Teachable-Cast academy for ages 9–14 where YOU are the teacher — teach novice cast characters drawn from across the portfolio, each reaching mastery based on how well you taught it, then watch graduates perform their skill in the Graduates' Hall. The deliberate anti-Character.AI: the protege effect with gacha, parasocial, and monetization patterns designed out.
