Agent Higgs is a simple iPhone game where you have to hide the
Higgs boson from those meddling scientists.
In this game, the
Large Hadron Collider physicists are trying to find the Higgs
boson. You have to hide the Higgs with other particles, in a
similar way to how the Higgs is thought to stay undercover in the
real world.
Agent Higgs introduces players to the standard model of physics:
the explanation of fundamental particles and force.
Made by Test Tube Games, previously one of our
Websites of the Month, Agent Higgs is proving to be pretty
addictive.
Although it mentions several areas of physics that aren't
covered between the ages of 11-16, it's a fun and simple
introduction to complex physics. It could be a good starter or
plenary discussing particles or how opposite charges attract.
You can download the game for $0.99 at iTunes. It runs on iPhones and
iPads, but you can also get a version for Mac or PC on Newgrounds.
