The curriculum
The British history studies, played
Flicco Britannia follows one valley in Wessex through the KS2 British studies, a chapter for each age. Here’s what’s there so far, and what’s to come.
Flicco for schools
A history game children want to play, built round what you teach.
It’s simple to run and safe for children, and it plays on the devices you already have.
Changes in Britain from the Stone Age to the Iron AgeThe Iron Age is here now: a farm of the Atrebates, its roundhouses, grain pits and hillfort. The Stone and Bronze Ages are to come.
The Roman Empire and its impact on BritainThe conquest, the hillfort, the road, the villa, Boudica, and the end of Rome.
Britain’s settlement by Anglo-Saxons and ScotsThe Anglo-Saxons are here now: newcomers and Britons, village life, kingdoms and laws, the conversion. The Scots are to come.
The Viking and Anglo-Saxon struggle for EnglandTo come: the raids, the Great Army and Alfred’s burh, ending in 1066.
In the classroom
Easy to run, and safe for children
The big ideas
- Chronology: the calendar counts down through BC and up through AD.
- Change and continuity: the same valley, chapter after chapter.
- How we know: every building and event has a note on the evidence.
Nothing to set up
- It plays in the browser on Chromebooks, iPads and older laptops.
- There’s nothing to install, and no accounts to make.
- There’s a guide for the first game, and an edition for younger players.
Safe for children
- There’s no chat.
- We don’t track children or collect anything from them.
- Fighting is a re-enactment, with no blood.
