Interactive escape room for GCSE Computer Science covering Computational Thinking - Abstraction, Decomposition, Algorithmic Thinking, aligned to a section of Topic 2.1 in the OCR GCSE Computer Science specification to J277.

In “Glitch World” - Something is corrupting the video game. Students must think like a computer scientist to find the bugs, rebuild the source and escape before the final boss. Students have to be careful - there is a timer and the must complete each task before the time runs out. There are 12 puzzle sectors in three zones, one for each skill. They include a robot maze, a flowchart repair, a trace table, a bug hunt, a module sorter and a black box probe.
