Savannah and Peaches need your help! They have been invited to participate in a race to find historical artifacts across the great state of Georgia.
If they beat the clock and some tough competition to win the race, Savannah and Peaches will win $100,000 and naming rights to a wing of the Cashworth Museum that will protect the artifacts for years to come.
Aligned to Georgia Standards of Excellence (GSE) for 8th grade social studies, the
game leverages primary source documents and rich historical content for an engaging, story-based, educational experience. Georgia educators and students were included in the development process, allowing crucial feedback to guide production. The game was designed to work across web and mobile platforms and is available online and on mobile devices. Click to play.
