Activities
The games on Wave are constantly being replaced and updated, so the fun and learning never stops. We call this dynamic game rotation. See the most popular games below.
BLOKS
Match the blocks
In the game bloks, players are challenged to match blocks of the same color with each other. To match the blocks with each other, they must touch each other in groups of at least three blocks. Once the blocks have been matched, they will disappear from the board and score points at the bottom of the screen.
The game is timed, so you have to work fast to score points. Bloks is a strategic game that trains players in communication, collaboration and quick thinking.
How high a high score can you achieve?
Game mechanics
Matching: Match the colored blocks in groups of at least three solid colored blocks. The more blocks that are matched at the same time, the more points you score.
Ghost: Send a ghost across the display to skip dropping a blok in a specific column.
Combo: Match groups of colored blocks in quick succession for bonus points.
Combo rewards: By making multiple combos in a row, a variety of different combo rewards can be earned.
Gray blocks: Match groups next to gray blocks to blow them up and get more space to play.
Gold bloks: Blocks that give more points than the others.

COMBO
Make combos
In the game combo, players are challenged to make combos and score points to move up the leaderboard.
At the start of the game, each color will be represented as a gemstone and have an individual value. The player's task is to get as many points as possible before the time runs out. If the player presses several of the same color in a row, a combo will be triggered, which gives extra points.
How many points can you get?
Game mechanics
The values of the different colors change from game to game. Therefore, make sure you are aware of the values of the colors when the game starts.
Tapping more than one of the same color in a row triggers a combo. A combo can be made by tapping up to 5 of the same color in a row.
A combo can also be triggered by alternately tapping two of the same colors twice in a row or tapping one of each of the four colors in a row.
A game of combo only takes 60 seconds. But it can be played over and over again, as no two games will be the same.
After the game, you will see a top five with the highest high scores of the week. See if you can make it to the top.

AGENT
Complete the missions
The game agent is all about finding sensors with matching colors or patterns. Each round becomes more and more challenging as the sensors get more colors and a number of copycats sneak in. You have to be quick, because there are bonus points to be earned.
The game is adaptive and follows the level of the individual player. Agent is a strategic game that trains players in communication and reaction skills.
Can you complete all the missions before the time runs out?
Game levels
Agent is made up of 9+ different levels. By completing a level, the next level is reached. As the player progresses through the different levels, they become more and more difficult.
The focal point of the game is to find the colors, patterns or color combinations that are similar. However, the player should not be fooled by copycats trying to sneak in.
Each level has a set number of pairs that must be found within 60 seconds. There are bonus points for being extra fast, so put on your running shoes and go hunting for the sensors.

True or false?
The game quiz consists of a wide range of categories, all of which contain fun and educational questions. After the speakers have asked a question, everyone must answer by pressing a sensor. Green for true and red for false. You have to be quick though, because there are not only points for answering correctly, but also points for being the fastest.
Quiz can be played by up to three teams at the same time and is a game that trains players in communication, strategy and quick thinking.
How many questions can you answer correctly?

MEMORY
Remember the sequence
The game memory is about remembering as many colors in a sequence as possible. The game starts with a sequence of three colors, which are shown by the corresponding sensors lighting up and making a sound in the correct order. It is now up to the player to reproduce this sequence by pressing the sensors in the order shown. For each round the player completes, a color is added to the sequence.
How many colors can you remember?
Game mechanics
The game begins with a single sequence of 3 colors, which are visually and audibly displayed to the player.
You need to observe and remember the order of the colors in the sequence.
The player must reproduce the sequence by pressing the sensor for that color in the sequence.
For each successful sequence, a new color is added to the sequence. This makes the game progressively more challenging.
Four attempts are given to memorize the sequences.
The player has the opportunity to challenge themselves by trying to beat their own or their friends' records.
