Race to Ratify is an educational game developed by iCivics, available for Android users. The game drops players into 1787, where they must decide the fate of the new Constitution. The game features a diverse and opinionated cast of characters, and players must travel across the 13 states to hear their views and opinions. Players must then use what they have learned to influence others through social media of the time, pamphlets.

The game teaches the core ideas behind the ratification debate between the Federalists and Anti-Federalists. Players will be able to identify the main stances, understand the key debates surrounding the ratification of the constitution, and interact with the ideas, perspectives, and arguments that defined the ratification debate. The game also allows players to explore the many different viewpoints that spanned geographic regions, populations, and socio-economic classes that permeated this historic period.

Race to Ratify is an engaging and interactive way to learn about the building blocks of the proposed Constitution. It challenges players to engage with competing ideas in order to form an effective and cohesive set of arguments for or against ratification within a state.
