About Election Lab Game
Developed by the passionate team at Indelible Learning, Election Lab Games are dynamic, single player and multiplayer strategy games where players take on the role of campaign strategist and a presidential candidate trying to figure the best strategy to win US Presidential Election. Along the way, they learn about the electoral process, use actual data to make decisions, and navigate electoral college and swing states while they learn.
Election Lab Games are designed to build civic literacy, data fluency, and a passion for participatory democracy. Election Lab Games empower students and players of all ages to understand how elections really work—through strategy, critical thinking, and electoral decision-making. It’s more than a game; it’s an engaging tool to foster electoral college literacy, data-driven thinking, and systems learning.
Congratulations to the Entire Team
We’re incredibly proud of everyone who brought Election Lab Game to life—from game designers, curriculum developers, and playtesters to teachers, parents, and students who challenged us to make the game even better. Being named a finalist is a win for all of us—and for everyone who believes in the future of civic learning.
Let’s take it one step further.
