SEL Hacked Gamer Guides
With the help of highly skilled professional educators, librarians, and support personnel, VGCUSA has hacked some of the most popular tabletop and video games on the market. Through these efforts, educators have been able to jump start their student's social emotional skills with every roll of the die or push of the button.
Feel free to download any and all copies of our SEL Hacked Gamer Guides and get kids connecting through play. Each book provides a modified ruleset which works in tandom with the natural flow of the game, connects with the CASEL 5 Core Competencies, and allows players to get to know one another on a personal level.
