Samskrita shibhiram is a residential camp for learning Sanskrit. We thank the organizers for giving iSeek the opportunity to present our 20+ Indic Knowledge web games that we have created so far. Looking at the enthusiasm of the community, we even gave them a first glimpse at "Panchang puzzle", a work-in-progress game that we are yet to launch.

We also thank them for giving us a platform to hold an UK premiere of "Sri-Satya-Narayana-Katha" an animation movie entirely in Sanskrit language (with English subtitles) that was created by Samskrita Bharati USA and Canada. 

Vishnu Gupta Vishwa Vidyalaya in Gokarna, Karnataka, India, has used some of our games to engage with their students and teach them our Hindu culture. For instance, they used our Wordle game to make them aware of Vishnu Sahasranama. They had also conducted a quiz using our game.
