KitCodes
Welcome to KitCodes! KitCodes is a mode designed to get your students up and moving around the class! With that, there’s a little bit of preparation required.

– KitCodes printed and hung around your classroom
– Student devices can move around the classroom (laptops, tablets, phones)
– Student devices have a camera
How KitCodes Works
KitCodes acts the same as normal Gimkit, but with one big twist: students have to move around the classroom to shop! When students enter the shop, they won’t be able to select which upgrade they want to purchase, or go into the powerup section. Instead they will be prompted to scan a KitCode!
Students will travel across the classroom to find the KitCode for what they are shopping for. Once they do, they scan that code!
And then…boom! Student are taken to that part of the shop!
And that’s it! With KitCodes being hung up around the class, the students have to get moving in order to shop. It’s also really awesome to see which students are shopping for what in the middle of a game!
