Using games as a way to educate and tell stories

One of the best ways to learn is through play. We bring the experience to translate your teaching objective into Minecraft worlds and gamify any experience.

We are Shapescape. Since 2013 we have sought to educate children through play and create interactive art pieces through Minecraft.

We are proud of our creations
