Reviews For Game Camp Nation – Waltham, Massachusetts (1)
Nightmare Camp
Reviewed
on Sep/08/2021
This camp is a total disaster organized by some 30-year-old children. We sent our teen to Game Camp Nation in Waltham this summer. The teens are barely supervised (almost no oversight--giving teens a free reign over a hotel is a recipe for a disaster), the organizers barely communicate with parents (and when they do, they are rude and immature), and the teens learn next to nothing. It's just a week+ of playing video games in a hotel. Having sent our other teens to plenty of camps, we have never had a camp experience as bad at Game Camp. Literally no redeeming qualities to this camp.

"My boys, now age 13 and 16, have attended Game Camp Nation for years. They spend all summer (or more) in eager anticipation, and the rest of the year is dotted with anecdotes, in-jokes, and stories from their times at camp. They actually rate Game Camp Nation above Christmas!
As a parent, I'm pleased with the opportunities they have to make new friends, and learn to create games. I've watched in near awe as one son used a game designer software package to create a new game in minutes, working faster than I could follow. And, although neither of them has yet to be bitten by the bug to program more, they do keep up with the programming lessons, and have learned to do art and design as well. As a software engineer myself, I'll keep hoping.
Game Camp Nation has given them some fabulous growth experiences, and become a highlight of their year."
