CREATIVITY. COLLABORATION. IMPACT.

Games for good.

The Worldwise Game Jam celebrates the creative process of designing and building games for good. We aim to spark innovation and collaboration among budding game developers.

Each year, students can work in teams of up to 8 people to build a game around a secret theme linked to one of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

From the theme reveal to the submission deadline, students have just one week to turn their ideas into games that could make a difference.

Educational excellence. Industry expertise.

Programme Partners for 2027

The Worldwise Game Jam brings together leading educational institutions and industry experts to give students real insight into what it means to work in the games industry, while also helping them explore pathways into the study of games and adjacent industries.
