Amazing Space missions for children with Space Camp
An interactive game for children from 7+
The idea behind the game is to educate children about the Moon, all lunar missions and all related topics by providing access to an interesting information such as photos, videos, fun facts and “Moon” related stories.
The Game interacts with the child such as this child is the new recruit of the Moon flight program.
An Interaction between the app and child in way of completing step-by-step quests (mini-games).
Each Quest (mini-game) starts with the description of this stage. For example, description of certain activity within this mini-game.
During the quest, child that plays the game, needs to perform some simple action (for instance, fast pock the screen or move smartphone to locate the object on the screen).
In case of completing the quest, child gets any fact that is related to the level he or she passed. There are also can be photos or videos provided to child. Furthermore, in order to encourage children to play and achieve more progress in the game, the awards system was integrated. For instance, after the Moon flight the child grows from “Space Schoolboy” to “Astronaut”
Story consists of four chapters: Training, Rocket Launch, Space Trip and Landing on the Moon. Each chapter explains processes that take place during specific part of the moon flight. Moreover, each of the chapter ends with the story that completes a past chapter and prepares child to the new chapter.
The game development doesn’t end on only one Moon Mission. To attract more interest the app will incrementally growth with a new space missions (Other Planet, Stars, Satellite, Galaxies explorations).
