Battlechips is officially certified by STEM.org, one of the world’s most trusted authorities in education. That means your students aren’t just having fun—they’re building real programming skills grounded in computational thinking, logic, sequencing, and problem-solving.

Battlechips teaches students to think like programmers—not by memorizing syntax, but through strategic decision-making, timing, and even turning bugs into advantages with Try/Catch error handling. All through battles, puzzles, and pirate lore.

Whether students are beginners or seasoned coders, Battlechips offers the perfect mix of accessibility and depth.

📚 Built for the Classroom

• Solo Comic Book Mode for independent learning
• Curriculum-Aligned Lessons ready to plug and play
• Self-paced or collaborative gameplay—flexible for any teaching style

…Is a classroom full of students not understanding why that error happened.

Battlechips fixes that.

Instead of memorizing rules, students experience coding through decision-making.

They feel what a loop does.

They predict what a conditional will execute.

They debug when a failure condition breaks their combo.

By the end of their adventure, students can explain nested loops, boolean conditions, and even advanced logic structures—not because they read it on a whiteboard, but because they played it.

Potato Pirates: Battlechips has been recognized as one of the best STEM toys for kids by some of the world’s most prestigious outlets.
