| legends_search_games | Searches the public Legends of Learning game catalog (curriculum-aligned learning games for grades K-12 in math, science, and social studies). Arguments (all optional): `query` free-text matches game titles and vocabulary; `grades` narrows to games for those grade levels (integers, 0 = kindergarten through 12); `game_type` is one of "instructional", "question", or "simulation"; `learning_objective_ids` narrows to games aligned to those learning objectives (get ids from legends_browse_standards); `page` (default 1) and `page_size` (default 10, max 25) paginate. Returns `games` (each with id, title, description, image, estimated_duration in minutes, type, grades served, teacher/student ratings, and the game's public url) plus `page`, `page_size`, `total_entries`, and `total_pages`. Example: {"query": "fractions", "grades": [3, 4], "page_size": 5} finds up to five 3rd-4th grade games about fractions. |
| legends_browse_standards | Browses the public Legends of Learning curriculum taxonomy. Without `standard_set`, lists the public standard sets (e.g. id "NGSS" for Next Generation Science Standards, "CCSS" for Common Core math), each with id, name, and subject_area; `query` filters them by name. With `standard_set` (a set id from the list above), lists the standards in that set. Each standard has id, code (e.g. "2.OA.A.1" or an NGSS code), title, description, grades ("k" and "1"-"12"), and subject. Use a standard's id in legends_search_games' `learning_objective_ids` to find games aligned to it. `query` free-text matches code, title, and description; `grade` (integer, 0 = kindergarten) narrows to one grade level. `page` (default 1) and `page_size` (default 10, max 25) paginate both modes. Example: {"standard_set": "CCSS", "grade": 2, "query": "addition"} finds 2nd-grade Common Core standards about addition. |
| legends_get_game | Fetches the full public detail for one Legends of Learning game by its numeric id (from legends_search_games). Returns the game's id, title, description, image, estimated_duration in minutes, type, grades served, teacher/student ratings, instructions, vocabulary, discussion questions, capability flags (supports_ipad, supports_tts, multi_language, saves_progress), lexile_level, the public url, and `learning_objectives` — the standards the game is aligned to, each with id, title, code, and standard_set. Example: {"game_id": 1445} returns that game, or an error result if no such game is publicly available. |
