Inspiration

My idea for this resource was sparked by a group of 6th graders who played Dungeons and Dragons in my classroom after school, fully immersed in the mathematics and creativity of the game. Character creation and logic led the way for these students, so I decided to create my own Egyptian Afterlife game.

Standards-Based, Gamified Learning

Within this gamified experience, students engage with multiple California History and Social Science Content standards, focusing on the social structure, politics, and religion of Ancient Egypt. The simulation runs over 3 days: students create characters, navigate the Egyptian underworld, and make choices that determine their fate in the afterlife.
