Required Hardware
A touch-screen of 21-inches or larger
Testimonials
"I've taken Tap Happy Sabotage to a range of events over the last year. The space I create is all about using simple to pick up digital and analog games to get people to play together. Tap Happy Sabotage fits perfectly and it's in constant use.
I've seen 3 generations of families spend thirty minutes competing against each other and laughing the whole time. This is the type of game/installation that encourages new friendships and gets strangers talking."

Codex Bash
Players must use the on-screen clues to uncover a sequence of button presses, and run around to bash the buttons in the right order. You may have to flip through maps, pick apart circuit diagrams or rifle through a book of spy photos, but one thing’s for certain: the best codebreakers work as a team!
Codex Bash won the Media Choice Award at IndieCade 2015. It was a nominee of the A MAZE awards in Berlin in 2016, and at the Out of Index festival in Seoul in 2017.
Required Hardware
Four coloured buttons placed at least 1.5m apart
Testimonials
"Codex Bash was one of the most popular parts of our event. Simple to learn, difficult to master, and a brilliant experience for players and spectators alike.
Watching strangers bond through frantic dashing and button bashing was an amazing way of showing how great gaming is at bringing people together."
Nathan Buckley - National Science and Media Museum
