The Cell Game is a web-based online multiplayer competitive educational game based on the strategic board game “Go”. Combining gaming and education, it aims to encourage students to learn new knowledge as well as review and reinforce existing knowledge. Students can join the game as a single player or in teams, and they need to answer questions to make moves on the game board. The game includes chatroom facilities for students to collaborate and hold discussions to solve problems with their team members. The elements of gamification and competition in learning can motivate students to study, do preparation and solve problems on their own! With its machine learning-based function for recognizing handwritten numbers and symbols and its powerful of equivalent simplification of mathematical expressions, it is an ideal tool for STEM education and for supplementing traditional face-to-face classes. The programme is free for use worldwide.
