<description>We brought together a panel of researchers, designers and educators to create the world&#39;s biggest library of free, online learning games. For years, teachers have told us that they need a better way to track down good, effective learning games. That’s why our team of game designers and researchers created the Vault: our growing library of free online games that are all consistently, reliably good.</description>

<description>Juice is more than just about making the game more satisfying. It is also about giving the player feedback that makes sense of the interactions. Of course, if a player feels like the game is more alive and fun, they are likely to engage more with it and this matters a lot for educational games. We want to helps players feel connected to the game world and gives weight or emotion to their actions.</description>
