Description | Ballot Box Bumble is a game designed for the BreakoutEDU platform, which is a tool to create puzzle-based games, similar to escape rooms in concept, for the classroom. In this game, designed to teach about the Canadian electoral system, players are volunteers at the polls. The director of the poll has gone missing, and the players are investigating her office to find out what happened. As they do, they learn about some of the controversies surrounding Canadian elections. |
