Ready. Set. Spawn! The Intellectual Disability Foundation’s Gaming Hub isn’t just a room with screens. It’s your ticket to battle royale glory, pixelated adventures, high-speed goals and everything in between.

Whether you’re building castles in creative mode or pulling off last-minute wins in Overwatch, there’s something here for every kind of gamer. And with our regular game rotations, there’s always a new challenge waiting for you.

Here’s what’s currently in the Game On library:


Fortnite: Build, Battle, Boogie 

Get ready to drop in! Fortnite is the ultimate survival game where 100 players battle it out until only one remains standing. But it’s not just about shooting. It’s also about building fast, dodging storms, and sometimes even dancing mid-battle.

Fun Fact: Fortnite held a virtual concert that attracted over 12 million live viewers, proving that this game is more than just a battle royale.

Why it's great at Game On: Fast reflexes? Creative thinking? Good teamwork? Fortnite brings it all. Plus, it’s super fun to cheer your mates on when they get that Victory Royale!


Overwatch 2: Heroes Assemble! 

If you love team play, Overwatch 2 is your jam. You pick a hero, each with unique abilities, and work with your team to defend or attack objectives in sci-fi-style arenas. Whether you’re a healer, tank, or damage dealer, everyone has a role to play.

Fun Fact: Overwatch characters come from all over the world, and the game celebrates diversity with heroes from different cultures, abilities, and even timelines!

Why it's great at Game On: It teaches teamwork, communication, and how to play to your strengths. That makes it perfect for building social skills in a fast-paced setting.


Super Smash Bros: Smash, Dash, Win! 

This one's pure chaos in the best way. Super Smash Bros pits your favourite characters (Mario, Pikachu, Donkey Kong) against each other in an epic brawl where the goal is simple: smash your opponents off the screen!

Fun Fact: The game has more than 80 playable characters. And yes, you can absolutely settle the age-old “Who would win in a fight: Sonic or Link?” debate.

Why it's great at Game On: It’s easy to pick up, hilarious to watch, and great for friendly competition. Plus, everyone has a favourite character.


Minecraft: Build Your Own World 

This iconic sandbox game lets you build, explore, and survive in pixelated perfection. From mining diamonds to crafting castles, Minecraft is all about imagination, whether you’re playing solo or with friends.

Fun Fact: Minecraft is the best-selling video game of all time. Over 300 million copies sold and counting!

Why it's great at Game On: It’s creative, calming, and totally inclusive, whether you're building your dream house or going on an adventure with your friends.


Rocket League: Soccer + Cars = Chaos 

Take soccer, add rocket-powered cars, and boom: Rocket League. It’s fast, explosive, and ridiculously fun. Score goals by flipping, flying, and boosting across the field in your turbo-charged car.

Fun Fact: Rocket League was originally going to be called “Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket-Powered Battle-Cars.” We’re glad they shortened it.

Why it's great at Game On: It’s great for reflexes, spatial awareness, and teamwork. Plus, who doesn’t love cars doing backflips?


Chess: Classic, but Make It Esports 

Yes, chess is an esport now! Whether you're a grandmaster or just learning the rules, chess sharpens your mind and teaches strategy like no other game.
