The Games for Change Student Challenge 2025 submission portal is now OPEN and Playing for the Planet are proud to be a partner of this incredible challenge!
This Challenge is a global game design competition where young creators (ages 10-25) use the power of play to address real-world issues. Students worldwide can now showcase their creativity and voices to design a social impact game to address themes like nature preservation, hunger, and road safety for the chance to win gear, global recognition, and a $10,000 scholarship.
As a proud theme partner, we’re excited to introduce our theme: “All in for Nature: Reefs & Rainforests,” inviting youth to design a game that tells the story of a reef or rainforest under threat, and how people unite to protect it.
We can’t wait to see what the youth creates!
The deadline to submit is March 30, 2026 and you can find out more about the challenge and submit an entry here: http://bit.ly/G4C-Competition
