Using a model of the e-puck, an open-source mobile robot designed for educational purposes, our simulation allows several players to program the behaviour of e-pucks competing for food. The simulation was tested and well accepted by a hundred children between 7 and 16 years of age. We think that this type of simulations holds a great pedagogical potential because of their inherent fun.robotmobotsswarmanoidaseba challengerobotics contesteducationprogrammingvideo gamee-puckaseba[MOBOTS]text::conference output::conference proceedings::conference paper
