It’s so much like a video game and, for Breakout+, it brings that teamwork piece into it, that conversation piece where they’re all right there together. You have to have a unified front. You can’t just randomly pick the rules, everybody has to agree. You have to have a conversation. It’s amazing.

We had a STEAM night and I set up ten kits with two clues each so families got to participate. There was a line waiting to do Breakout EDU! The families were probably as excited, maybe if not more than the kids were.
