Microgrid Mastermind is a cooperative strategy board game where 1–6 players take on the roles of Grid Keepers working together to build and manage a resilient energy grid using real-world concepts like renewable energy, infrastructure planning, and resource balancing. Created by students at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln and supported by the Nebraska Center for Energy Sciences Research (NCESR) and Nebraska Public Power District (NPPD), the game blends hands-on STEM learning with fast-paced, engaging gameplay.
Project A.C.R.E. is a team of faculty, staff, and students that develop research-based serious educational games to promote agroecosystem literacy, enhance understanding of sustainability, and increase awareness of STEM careers relevant to agroecosystems.
