What The Vault Is
The Innovation Vault is an evidence-based history and STEM game built on the Black Scientists & Inventors Platform. Players work through six Wings — Deep History, Ancient Civilisations, Atlantic World & Diaspora, Modern & Contemporary, Future Horizons, and STEM Concepts — covering 126 Cases in total, each one a real statement to be judged, not a trivia question to be guessed.
Myth or Truth Challenge
A timed round where you decide whether a statement is fact or fiction before the clock runs out.
Detective Mode
Evidence is presented first; you weigh it and deliver a verdict, at your own pace.
Every Case is sourced from the Black Scientists and Inventors book series, the Platform's own Scientists Database, or independently verified research — so what you're judging is real, with a full explanation revealed after you answer.
Who It's For
Individual Learners & Families
Anyone curious about the real history of Black scientific and technological achievement, from ancient toolmaking through to today's AI and robotics.
Schools & Educators
Content is age-banded across Key Stage 1 through Key Stage 4, plus an Adult variant, with every variant pre-authored and human-reviewed rather than generated on the fly.
