The early games get kids thinking about coding concepts through fun and challenging puzzles. Later games encourage creativity through a sandbox approach. Dystopia 2153 is powered by Google's Blockly and features over 100 different coding games.
Dystopia 2153 features an original soundtrack, scored by an innovated and multi-faceted composer. The music is emotionally-charged and supports the story as it unfolds.
The year is 2153. In a world run by evil bots, it's dangerous to be human. Lance, Freya, and their friends are trapped in the Rathouse Orphanage. Will they escape or will villains Harry Mole and BASH catch them? There is only one way to find out.
Dystopia 2153 is recommended for middle school students or anyone interested in coding and graphic novels.
Dystopia 2153 is web-based; no installation is required. For optimal user experience, we recommend desktops, laptops, Chromebooks, or netbooks running the latest version of a major web browser.
The artwork is exquisitely dark and beautiful. The coding lessons are well thought out and I appreciate all the opportunities to practice while levelling up.

A dystopian future is common in graphic novels however, the execution is what makes this interesting and unique from most graphic novels.

The drawings were really nice and the coding is the most creative thing about it.
