Players form teams and participate in challenges, such as building projects or game-based tasks, competing against other teams in a structured league or tournament. The program emphasizes collaboration, strategic thinking, and digital literacy, offering students a fun and educational way to engage with technology and develop important life skills. It also integrates elements of coding, engineering, and design, making it an educational and engaging way for student to develop both technical and soft skills.
