Introducing Breakout EDU
How do I get Breakout EDU?
There are two options for implementing BreakoutEDU.
- Purchase a complete kit from BreakoutEDU. These cost $150 and come with all the things you need to get started right away including platform access.
- Build your own. Use the provided list to compile all of the items yourself, saving a little money and getting your kit faster (but without the cool wooden box marked BreakoutEDU). Platform access is $60, but making your own clues or user-generated games are free!
Games
The best thing about BreakoutEDU are the open-source materials and games compiled on their website. To get the pass code and open the materials to each game, you need to register with BreakoutEDU and they will send you the secret code. This is to protect the secrets of the games and if they ever change the pass code, you will receive an email notifying you of the new code.
