+
+[The Adventures of Frances Perkins](https://arcade.makecode.com/24653-68670-93715-48748) by **Brohann** is a terrific platformer where you play as civil rights activist Frances Perkins as she saves children from being forced into child labor. This game wowed our judges with its level of polish: the art, sounds, and text/lighting effects really made it stand out from the crowd! We also loved that the gameplay switches up as the game goes on (be sure to check out the minecart levels!).

+| &nbsp; |
+
+[Grace Hopper's Hop-O-Matic](https://arcade.makecode.com/14599-75222-61879-27532) by **rymc88** lets you take on the role of Grace Hopper's compiler as it processes source code into ones and zeroes. Our judges loved how this game interpreted the theme as well as the amazing animation it plays when you finish encoding a character. This game is surprisingly addictive even though it only uses two buttons!
