People play games not because of the medium, but the content. So just making a game would seem pointless, it has to be a very engaging game, and frankly speaking this one looks pretty bland. Is the idea that kids should play this on their free time, just for fun, or as part of their studies?

Also, what's OP? "Yes OP", "No OP", "Curious OP"

OP is a slang used in live streams.

Further, we are not just building an educational game.

Everyday at 6 PM IST, an instructor conducts live streams where he plays the game and teaches the kids their favourite science topics.

Kids will learn at Kalam Labs exactly how they learn through encyclopedias.

Ok but what does OP mean?

And are kids playing this because they want to, or because school or parents tell them to?

OP means overpowered.

Kids play because they want to.

Overpowered? Can’t say that makes it much clearer… “yes overpowered”?
