Daily Online Games and Prizes

Play safety games, win safety prizes! We'll have 4 types of online games available during Lab Safety Week. For each game you complete, you can send us a file as described below and in the game page for an entry into our prize drawing. You can complete each unique game once, and each one gets you an entry. We'll draw for prizes the games on February 16th.

  1. A daily Quordle (think "Wordle", but 4 at a time) that will change each day of Lab Safety Week. Send  a screen-snip/shot of your completed game to psuehs@psu.edu for an entry each day.
  2. A daily Virtual Escape Room that will also change each day. Send  a screen-snip/shot of your completed game to psuehs@psu.edu for an entry each day.
  3. One word search for the week - scan your completed word search and send it to psuehs@psu.edu for one entry
  4. One bingo card for the week - send your bingo card with the evidence it asks for (photos, documents) to psuehs@psu.edu for multiple entries. See the bingo card for details.
