A few weeks ago, we revealed the winners of our Education and AI Game Jam, hosted in collaboration with Week of AI.
The challenge was to create a game that included both an educational and creative angle, integrating AI in a way that enhances the learning experience.
We received 17 incredible submissions, from complex chatbots that teach languages, to historical simulations, and even multiple AI-powered characters you can interact with to learn about different disciplines.
All of them created using Rosebud AI Game Maker, a platform that allows you to build games just with prompts.
The first place went to Pathfinder: Terra’s Fate. This game impressed us with its excellent integration of ecological elements and immersive music.
The second place was awarded to Assisted Charade. This game was noted for its seamless multiplayer functionality and intriguing AI-generated riddles.
Ferment! took third place. This game, featuring a chat with a smart jar of kimchi, was praised for its beautiful visuals and music.
Lastly, the Community Special Award went to EduGuardian, a simple, fun, and engaging AI character.
These games, made by and for educators, are just a glimpse of the possibilities that Rosebud AI offers; our platform not only enhances the learning process but also fosters creativity and technical skills among students.
All of them can be used in various ways in the classroom, whether by inviting students to play and learn, or by encouraging them to create their own interactive experiences.
Check out the best games from our Education and AI Game Jam here:
