The leaves may be changing into beautiful autumn colors, but one thing that doesn’t change are that new games are coming to your classroom from Legends of Learning! Here are TEN new games to share in this tenth month of the year!

New In Grades 3-5

Elementary teachers, we have a new math game for each of 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades!

• For 3rd grade math, Fruit Fruit Warehouse supplements your lesson on solving problems with scale bar graphs. Help the team ship fruit by sorting boxes and counting them with visual bar graphs. Hurry, shipments can’t be late, the people need their healthy sugar fix!
• Are you ready to dive into the depths of space to help the little star go back home? In Galactic Geometry, students will learn the concepts behind 4th grade linear geometry to overcome the challenges that will help our friend reunite with his fellow stars. Space is so vast, so let’s simplify it with 2-D figures that we can understand together! Find this game featured further below in this post. 
• Your neighbor down the street is moving out of their crazy mansion and it’s a perfect time to use your muscles and help move their items! In Measurement Mansion, it’s a perfect opportunity to flex your knowledge of finding the volume of right rectangular prisms, and to explore the quirky mansion!

Moving to science, this new game for physical science is sure to grow on you:

• We’ll be eating lots of cozy foods to keep us warm as it gets colder, but how do those foods give us the energy we need to survive? Lazy Cow Farm is your place to become an expert in the energy in chemical processes, as well as growing your new farm!

Pumpkin-flavored food and drinks are the main source of sustaining life in America in October, am I right? (Well, maybe for some of us more than others…) Read how these two new games for elementary life science truly teach students about sustaining life on our planet: 

• In Food Webs Around the World, we’ll find that there’s more to a diet than pumpkin bread and warm apple cider. Visit various biomes around the world, and collect all the plant and animal cards to learn about their roles in their ecosystem.
• On Adapt Island!, angry robots have appeared on a once relaxing island! You’ll need to adapt in order to bring peace to the island and help the friendly animals that live there. Discover a mystical power that allows you to choose which adaptations you would like to help you on your journey and send those robots away! Find this game featured further below in this post.

New In Grades 6-8

For you middle school science teachers, check out these four new games (three for life science and one for physical science). 

Let’s start with the new games for life science: 

• For the middle-school Adaptation topic, we present Adapt-O-Tron! We come to you urgently, as the animals of the future are not adapting and becoming extinct! Can you use Adapt-O-Tron to adapt the animals correctly, helping them become better suited to their environments? Otherwise you could end up with a wolf with a beak or a mouse with hooves!
• While we’re still at the macro-level of biology, let’s address Food Webs in an Ecosystem in the game Tiny Ecosystem. Most ecosystem’s aren’t too small, but in this case let’s keep one small and manageable to see all the high-level workings and maintain its balance!
• Moving town to the micro-level, let’s envision our cells as their own city in this unique adventure as a Cell Patrol Officer in Cell Patrol! Each organelle is cleverly analogous to a city building in function, and this game will be a great visual for any student continuing their education of parts of the cell. Find this game featured further below in this post. 

We can’t let life science have all the fun, so let’s wrap up and geek out with a new game for physical science:

• Path of Energy is a fantastic journey on becoming a hero who is one with Kinetic Energy. A hero who understands energy is the closest you can get to becoming a Jedi! Now use some kinetic energy to assign your students some of these awesome new games 🙂

We’re feeling spicy to start this new school year because we have a mind-blowing 24 new games for you! Let us share with you what’s hot! 

New In Grades 3-5

It’s the beginning of the school year, which means science classes are discussing a cornerstone of their curriculum: the scientific method! 

• Scientific Coalition is a must-add to your scientific method assignments. Players will love the space battle that opens the game before conducting an experiment within the space station they are protecting. The graphics are excellent and the concepts are all clearly presented, making this an excellent game for all levels of learners in your classroom! Find this game featured later in this post. 

In elementary earth and space science, we have two new games for your classroom this fall: 

• Hurricanes are devastating for everyone affected, all the wildfires on the west coast are terrifying, and tornadoes that routinely touch ground across the country are horrible natural hazards. A very practical science lesson is learning how to mitigate their impact on our people. Look no further than Hazardville, a very approachable but engaging game for students to learn about this topic. 
• The upcoming seasonal change to autumn is perfect context for your students to learn about the Earth in the Solar System and how the Earth’s positioning drives the patterns we experience on the planet. Check out Back to the Moon and you’ll love both the journey and the destination!

We’re excited to introduce two more games for elementary life science: 

• Food provides animals with the materials for body repair, growth and energy to maintain body warmth and physical movement. All animals need food — even animals as simple as bunnies! Play A Bunny’s Life and help your furry friend stay safe from predators while finding enough food to power its daily life processes. 
• Food for animals is one thing, but how does energy move through all elements of life? Let’s break out the food web charts in Digiworld Adventure: Learn Food Webs in an adventure that will span many organisms and ecosystems!

Physical science is the winner among the elementary sciences with three new games this month! 

• Let’s start with introductory concepts of forces and motion with Bot Lab: Forces and Motion. Join the robot crew to keep the laboratory as productive as possible! 
• Now let’s move up in complexity to collisions and forces. Flick a Marble is a game that all your students will love as they well, flick a marble at a target goal. The game design is simple but the challenges throughout truly help all learners better experience the forces of collisions. 
• Changing gears, Earthquake! is a very cool experience for learning about the concepts of wave motion. How good are you at predictions? Can you figure out when—and how powerfully—an earthquake will hit Square City? Triangulation is the key!

3rd grade math teachers, hope you’re feeling groovy, because we have (6!!) new games already to start the school year. 

• In Area Zone, students will learn the principle that area can be measured in unit squares. Travel with the character Floatey to save the Block Kingdom from the Zone Bandit!
• If our planet was alive and ate food, what would it eat? Well, I guess its only options would be asteroids and the minerals from other rocks floating around in space. In Planetary Gourmet, help feed the Planet King, who is very picky about how his food quantities are expressed in fraction form. 
• What would you do if you were transformed into a wolf? Obviously, you would go become an expert into multiplication and division concepts that are the building blocks of the spell to reverse this condition. Best of luck, and enjoy the journey in XanDivide! 
• Heads up, these next three games’ theme is baking, so don’t be surprised if you’re craving baked goodies after reading this. In Slothy’s Bakery, help your friend run their new bakery. There’s a secret strategy to success: understanding fractions of cakes and desserts. Make sure to get each order correct!
• A little-known fact about dinosaurs, particularly the T-Rexes, is that they loved to bake for each other. Experience a different kind of jurassic park in Dino Bakery and continue your mastery of fractions with baked goods. 
• Fast forward to the modern era, and of course humans have mastered the craft of baking (look no further than the Great British Baking Show!). In Cakey Master, can you use all the skills you have learned in both baking and fractions and become the head chef baker? (Don’t worry, Paul Hollywood won’t be in the game to judge you). 

Hopping up to 4th grade, there’s one new game for a lesson on dividing using four-digit dividends: 

• Two robots are on a mission to find each other in Robo Raucous, and you’ll learn about how strategies for division will help them accomplish their mission!

Let’s wrap up new elementary game content with one new game for 5th grade math: 

Do you know of any heroes in the Avengers or Justice League that use a coordinate plane to help them save the day? They might not show it on screen, but all heroes start with knowledge on how items can be mapped relative to each other with standard axes. In The Coordinated Hero, channel your heroics to stop dangerous robbers with the power of graphing coordinates!

New In Grades 6-8

Our middle school science suite also has new scientific method games perfect for the start of the school year: 

• Scientific Alliance is the middle school version of Scientific Coalition mentioned for elementary science. Players will love the space battle that opens the game before conducting an experiment within the space station they are protecting. The graphics are excellent and the concepts are all clearly presented, making this an excellent game for all levels of learners in your classroom!
• You just crash-landed on an abandoned mining planet! How do you save your life by managing your resources? Use Lost at the Forever Mine as a perfect gameplay scenario for *calmly* working through the scientific method, as your life depends on it…

Get out your hiking boots because there three new adventures ready for earth science:

• In Water Dog, use magical temperature powers to change the state of water formations and engage with the components of the Water Cycle. There’s beauty in navigating one of the most important processes on Earth! Find this game featured further below in this post.
• In Tectonic Designers, help a friendly alien in a set of challenges to create a functional planet, using the building blocks of plate tectonics. What do you think this planet will look like?
• Can you speak the name of the wind for it to follow your commands, changing the course of weather patterns as a result? Give it your best shot and learn about weather and climate factors in Wind Simulator!

Wrapping up the list of new games this month, there are three new games for middle school physical science:

• Few people are important enough in science to have multiple laws named after their discoveries, so let’s take Newton seriously. Dive into an experience on Newton’s First and Second Laws in another edition of Bot Lab. You and your robot crew are tasked with keeping the laboratory productive, using Newton’s Laws as your own. Don’t be the one who shuts down the entire laboratory due to negligence! 
• Magnets are crazy, we all know it. Invisible force fields? Come on. Play Magnet Hunt and you’ll find that magnetic fields are fully present when finding buried objects. Opposites attract, after all!
• Less crazy, but more mesmerizing, we love the repeating patterns of waves. So soothing. So how do they work? Check out Wave Combinator to learn about wavelength, frequency, and amplitude, all of the properties of waves.

Don’t Forget: Feature Added for New Games Based on Your Feedback

This update rolled out over the summer and to make sure everyone makes the most out of it, we wanted to remind everyone about this exciting new feature: Saving Student Progress!

We received countless comments about how students need to be able to resume games at saved checkpoints if they are unable to complete the game in one session. Our game developers listened, and games released this summer and all new games moving forward will include saved checkpoints! If students leave a game, when they resume they will have the option to start from the beginning or continue from their last saved progress point.

All of the new games mentioned below, along with the new games launched in recent months’, have this functionality. We are excited to continue expanding our games’ capabilities based on your feedback!

The school year is upon us and we could not be more excited for students to start playing our newest games! So, let’s check ’em out! 

New In Grades 6-8

Usually we start by introducing the newest games for elementary school, but let’s give middle schoolers some early love this month. 

With the beautiful summer spent appreciating the outdoors, we’ll start with new Earth and Space Science games:

• Bezos is not the only one who can go to space — let’s do him one better and travel to the moon in Doruk’s Adventures on the Moon! Students will explore the Lunar Phases and will be stoked to get home after school and see which phase of the moon is out in the night sky tonight. 
• Why do some summer days have to be ruined with a rainy day? Well, The Water Cycle is here to explain the importance of water flowing around the Earth, including when it comes down from the sky. Do so in a fun, turn-based game out in the field!

We would not be enjoying the world around us in the summer if we did not appreciate all the rich life around us:

• Another cycle with critical importance to our world is the flow of carbon. The Carbon Cycle is similar in style to The Water Cycle game above, but here, students will engage with carbon cycling in the ecosystem. Transform carbon from water to sky to land–before your tricky opponent does!

None of the above phenomena would be possible without the building blocks of matter:

• Let your students explore states of matter and their structure with the excellent simulation-type game AtomTouch. There is  a set of mini games for the player to experiment with various topics related to atoms and physics! The player is in the driver’s seat and can play and review the different concepts for their own learning.

New In Grades 3-5

Taking a quick break from science, let’s give new math games in our elementary suite some much-deserved attention.

Third grade teachers, we have 3 new games to help you settle into the new year:

• Warm up your students to learning with a simple game about reading temperature. Temp Out allows students to practice their ability to read temperature from a thermometer accurately. 
• An island full of quadrilaterals? If your students don’t like them now, they’ll love them after some time with Sparky The Recycled Puppy – Shape Island Adventure. Students will learn the shared attributes of different shapes that categorize them all as quadrilaterals in this fun adventure!
• Let’s learn how to compare two fractions in Hero Escape. A Hero is one who can escape a dungeon, detain their enemies, and….become an expert in fractions! Go get ‘em!

Moving up to 4th grade, there are two new games, one for fractions and one for geometry:

• Let’s harvest crops with our local farmer while they are still in season in Felix’s Fraction Farm. Plots of land have a lot of similarities with fractions, so it’s important to understand how we can decompose the land into different parts, or fractions of the land! 
• Let’s dive into lines of symmetry in the adventure Symmetry Mining Co. You’re looking for the mineral Corodium on a far-away planet, and it’s a very important energy source. To best locate and mine it, you’ll need to first harness energy from lines of symmetry!

Hopping to elementary science, we have 3 great new games for the start of your school year:

• The Scientific Method is probably at the beginning of your curriculum, right? Engage your students right away with Attack of the Ice Giants. Use investigative scientific principles to determine the best way to fight off the Ice Giants. You can’t go wrong by starting the year with this game!
• Journeying back out to space, Astral Quest is an adventure to learn about the fascinating characteristics and patterns of the Earth within the Solar System. Learn alongside an intelligent astronomer who is working to undo the mischievous work of an alien!
• Collisions and forces are a great area of study for young students because they are easily observable and reproducible in experimentation. So let’s have some fun with it in The Wizard of Force, where students will seek a legendary treasure by using forces to move objects within the dungeons’ tricky puzzles! Plus, it doesn’t hurt for your students to believe that Wizards are simply masters of forces!

A Closer Look at New Games

In Force to the Moon, launch a rocket into orbit and land it safely on the surface of the Moon. Understand how to use the forces of your rocket thrusters to command your ship to success!

New In Grades 6-8

Learning how to divide fractions can be a doozy. You mean you have to flip the divisor and multiply it by the dividend?

• Introduce BunBun, the pizza delivery rabbit in Pizza Runner who will make us champions of dividing fractions (and eating pizza). Who needs Bugs Bunny in Space Jam when you can have BunBun dishing fraction knowledge AND pizza! 

Let’s get meta:

• The Game Developer Equation where the game is to design a game (woah)! Game developers build important equations and functions into every game for all the gameplay events and interactions between characters. Behind all the best video games is knowledge on writing and solving problems — algebra at its finest!

Isaac Newton is receiving extra love from Legends of Learning this summer, because we have TWO new games for Newton’s First and Second Laws. 

• Let’s start with a classic game turned useful science lesson: Push’em Robots. Having flashbacks to playing Rock’em Sock’em Robots? We hope so, because now you can share the joy of this game with your students in an educational way!
• If boxing isn’t your thing, that’s okay! Let’s slow down the pace and appeal to the folks who like spending summer days out on the links. Newton’s Golf Island is an excellent choice for middle school students to understand the physics of motion with a common activity they can understand. Challenge your students to get a birdie on every hole!

Updates to existing games – based on your feedback!

Many pre-released favorite games are continuously receiving updates to add important features like saving checkpoints in-game, text to speech, Spanish translation, and better loading! Here are some updated games that many teachers and students love:

New In Grades 3-5

Feeling the summer heat? Elementary math teachers, we’re coming in HOT with new games for your classroom. 

Lines and shapes are everywhere around us. It’s amazing what architects and designers can do with sound knowledge of geometry. Medieval Adventure and Triangle INC are here for your students to build their foundational geometry knowledge, learning how to differentiate shapes based on lines and angles. In Triangle INC, learn to design and manufacture triangular and quadrilateral toys — do you have what it takes to be part of the best geometric toy maker in the galaxy? Or perhaps some of your students prefer the fantasy setting of Medieval Adventure? If you look close enough, rooted in all charms, spells, and heroic adventures is shape differentiation. 

Don’t be a square by ignoring these games! 

Let’s get back to the basics with games for fractions and basic multiplication and division. Fracture is a well-designed game that will take your students into the forest foraging for mushrooms and flowers to fraction into potions. Sharpen your multiplication and division by helping released caged toucans back to wildlife! Release the Toucans is your next mission!

New In Grades 6-8

Middle school students will go into next school year slaying their fraction and decimal problems, because this summer Odyssey: Rex-Calibur and Astro Miner will guide them to mathematical prowess. Both of these games remind us of why we are here to synchronize games and academic learning. Inspired by King Arthur’s tale, Odyssey: Rex-Calibur will have your students exploring the lands of their kingdom with fraction division as their guide to become worthy of the sword that will bring peace to their rule. Decimal precision is the name of the game if you want to be a successful space explorer. You need to be exact if you’re going to discover vital resources across distant ends of the galaxy in Astro Miner!

Maybe you are a scientist who wants to stick to exploring within our own atmosphere – that’s okay too! Diamond Hunter invites you to search for diamonds locked away and protected by gross slime. Let states of matter and their structure be your guide here!

Updates to existing games – based on your feedback!

Basketball Master is a staple for student assessment across many topics, and we know this game has had various technical difficulties in the past, from sticky controls to frequent freezing and crashing. We are excited to report this game has been adjusted to address these issues!

New In Grades 3-5

It’s review season at school, and we have excellent new games for big topics like Earth and the Solar System and Properties of Matter. We have huge space nerds here at Legends of Learning, so we are especially excited for the new games about Earth and space. 

An Alien’s Guide to the Solar System is as fun as its name – plenty of lovely minigames for your students to explore the solar system with some foreign friends. Gameplay is smooth, and the material and gameplay arrives at a pace accessible to any student. Within the same Earth and the Solar System learning objective, Space Domes Resort is another tremendous game for your students. Live in a future where you can relax as a hero at a resort in outer space, and use your knowledge of space to save the day even while on vacation. After playing both of these games, you will have a classroom full of aspiring astronauts! Find more information on Space Domes Resort later in the post. 

Learning about the solar system would be very difficult without an understanding of the properties of matter. Come back down to earth with a humble game Laboratory Mess following a janitor who has witnessed a terrible explosion in his building. We love how this game allows the student to solve puzzles in an open-ended manner, using clues they find in each room they enter. Laboratory Mess is a great choice for your students to better understand the properties of matter, and you can find more information on this game further down.

Middle school teachers, we know you love the grandiosity of the solar system, and you also love the small things, like atoms and elements. Why not combine them both? That is exactly what Space Repair brings to your classroom! Satellites need to be repaired, and students will need to apply knowledge on the structure of atoms to use the right materials and get the job done. The presentation and art in this game is beautiful, with gameplay that will be approachable for everyone in your classroom. Find Space Repair featured at the end of this post.

Do not worry! We have new life science content here for you too. In Microlives, students will be welcomed to the tiny world of cells! On the agenda you will find the characteristics of how different types of cells live and reproduce. Even little things need to know how to thrive in a microscopic world!

We have exciting news about some of our older games too: a beloved character in our library of games, Ms. Rose, is coming with better technical performance and new features like text to speech and save checkpoints! Ms. Rose and Photosynthesis is the first game fully updated, with others such as Ms. Rose and the Milky Way and Ms. Rose and Our Solar System right around the corner. We can’t wait for your students to enjoy a more reliable experience while playing these classics. 

Math teachers, our game developers have not forgotten about you! One of our favorite games in our middle school suite, Wizard vs Orcs has also been updated with better controls and stronger technical performance for your students’ Chromebooks.
