Learning the fundamentals of any subject helps to drive the interest and better understanding of the subject. So, we started to build upon the Binary Numbers (0 and 1). Traditional methods of teaching binary-to-decimal conversion are often static and lack interactive challenges, making the learning process disengaging.

The Tangible Gap in CS Education

We categorized these areas and tried to understand what our objective will be if we select any one of these.

While Math, Lifestyle, and Business & Markets thrive in tactile board games, Computer Science (CS) largely remains digital. Despite CS often being linked to Math and its inherent digital nature, we've found a lack of physical games.

Existing digital CS games, like "Binary Blaster," focus on speed and accuracy but miss the crucial element of conflict. We believe deeper learning happens when challenges align with player skill, driven by competition and conflict. This presents a clear opportunity for engaging, tangible CS games.
