Now Imagine Your Game!

WHO are you designing your game for? (Include the player's age, abilities, and prior knowledge of your topic.) I am making this game for 5-18 years, real good reflexes, and great common sense.

WHAT will your game teach the player about your topic? (Be specific!)My game will teach people to be better informed with sports information.

WHERE does your game happen? On a football field.

Describe the world you will design for your game. It will have a lot of sport teams and have sports equipment everywhere. Also there will be hospital equipment too.

How will this setting add to the learning experience? Teach people that sports do have injuries and that they are very serious.

HOW does your game world teach the player about your topic? Show them how to be safe while playing sports and have fun by doing it.

What happens in the world that helps the player learn? It will have real-life stories about kids who got sports injuries.

How does the player use what they learned to make something happen in the game? They would play it again and they could get better each time.

WHY is a game a better way of understanding your topic than a quiz? Because they can see a visual and interact better.

Choosing A Topic

I chose the topic to inform people to know how many children have been injured in sports and how we could solve the problem.
