Construction Site Simulator

🏗️ Game-Based Learning

BuildSim · Job Site Simulator

An HTML5 game-based construction management simulator where students drag and drop facilities on a blueprint grid, optimize worker travel distance, respect site constraints, and manage resources — all while receiving real-time AI formative feedback on every decision. Includes scoring engine, leaderboard, certificate generation, and a comprehensive formative assessment report.
