Play & Learn: OLA’s Miami Map Brings Education to Gaming

OLA Guild Games, a trailblazer in the Web3 gaming community, is reshaping how we experience Miami by launching an educational gaming map centered on the city’s challenges and opportunities. OLA continues its mission to use gaming as a tool for learning and community empowerment.

Miami Comes Alive in gaming

The Miami-themed map invites players to explore iconic landmarks and neighborhoods while tackling real-world issues. Designed as part of OLA’s Play & Learn initiative, this immersive map integrates lessons on sustainability, recycling, and disaster preparedness. By playing, participants gain a deeper understanding of the challenges Miami faces, such as the impact of plastic waste and climate change, all while having fun in a vibrant digital recreation of the city.

The Miami-themed developed in collaboration with Widow Games, brings OLA’s vision to life, combining gaming innovation with educational storytelling to engage players in meaningful ways.

The first Mini-Game: Dive into an action-packed eco-adventure where every move helps protect Miami Beach! 🌊 With over 8,000 pounds of trash washing up daily, it's your mission to clean the shores. Race against time, collect as much debris as possible, and deposit it in the container to score big points.

Challenge your reflexes, compete with friends, and learn how small actions can lead to a cleaner, safer environment for marine life. Will you rise to the challenge and make waves for a clean Miami? 🌴✨~~~~

Transforming Education Through Play

The educational components of OLA’s Miami map aim to bridge the gap between gaming and learning. Through engaging gameplay, players discover actionable ways to contribute to Miami’s well-being, from reducing waste to preparing for natural disasters. This innovative approach aligns with OLA’s commitment to fostering collaboration and awareness in the gaming community.
