SwopBots supports many curriculum goals
Learn basic coding
SwopBots uses a familiar block based coding system. Simply drag blocks together to build code characters and other objects within the game.
Fun gameplay
SwopBots combines traditional platform game elements with learning to code. Jump from platform to platform, collect crystals and avoid falling off the planet!
Use code to solve puzzles
Coding is used to solve puzzles within the game. Actions such as opening doors, getting past obstacles and controling robots all require code to be used.
Supports learning of other block based software
SwopBots uses much of the same language and structure as other block based coding software such as ‘Scratch’. SwopBots was designed to support the teaching and learning of these systems.
Follow student progress
Teachers can track student progress via the teacher console. See how far students have progressed, as well as which code blocks they are confident using. Students can take screenshots in the game to share with their teacher and describe the code they used.
