Quantum Particle-in-a-Sandbox (QPiaS) is designed for students of quantum mechanics to explore the time-dependent dynamics of one-dimensional wave functions on any imaginable one-dimensional potential surface. Through this game, students will learn some basic quantum mechanics concepts and terminology, such as wave function collapse and quantum tunneling.
