To support efforts towards addressing the increasingly growing global burden of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), a diverse and multicountry team of stakeholders developed a board and online game on antimicrobial stewardship (AMS). The game aims to create awareness and develop knoweledge of healthcare teams at all levels. Reports from initial players reflect that the game is an innovative, engaging and inclusive education resource on AMR and AMS. The game continues to be promoted for continued and wider usage across the globe.
