In a world where sunglasses are not just a matter of fashion but a necessity for survival, participants will embark on an immersive adventure filled with intrigue, hazards, and reward. The Mission: infiltrate a manufacturing facility that has been monopolized by Evil Eye Corp. to manufacture affordable and sustainable sunglasses for the masses.  

The Breakout Box: Manufacturing Challenge, housed inside the Breakout Box takes students on a 35-minute immersive adventure where they apply computational thinking and problem-solving to successfully run an eyewear manufacturing facility. From the moment they step inside the custom-built immersive learning space, students will experiment with game-based learning to build their critical thinking, collaboration, and manufacturing skills.
