The document describes a proposed educational game called Playground Wars that allows parents to create profiles for their children, assign homework and practice work, and track their children's progress. Teachers are also able to assign and receive homework through the game. The game uses cards to quiz children on academic topics. Children earn rewards like new card packs for doing well on their homework, while a portion of proceeds from card packs goes to support the associated school.
