Campus obstacles, real Mizzou trivia, and a race to make it to class, built into an arcade runner.
Drop it into your recruitment table setup—Mizzou Rush turns a sixty-second play into a real student lead.
Dodge, Run, Win
A prospective student walks up to a recruitment table, taps in, and starts running — dodging the obstacles every Mizzou student hits on the way to class, picking up real campus facts and quirks along the way. They enter their email to play. At the end of the event, the high score wins something actually worth winning — a Nintendo Switch instead of another stack of pens nobody keeps.

Recruitment / Campus Life
Built by our own interns.
Mizzou Rush wasn’t funded, assigned, or commissioned — Adroit student interns built it because they saw a problem worth solving. Recruitment fairs run on the same tired playbook: cheap giveaways nobody remembers by the parking lot. This is what our students build when nobody’s asking them to.
