Quantum Games IQIM’s quantum game program began by developing qCraft (in collaboration with Google and MinecraftEDU); a mod that brings concepts of quantum physics into the popular online game Minecraft. Using qCraft within Minecraft, kids learn about quantum superposition and quantum entanglement, and may apply this knowledge to solve a series of puzzles. [...]
