Plan Game

• WHO are you designing your game for? (Include the player's age, abilities, and prior knowledge of your topic.) How will you make sure your game is not hurtful to any group of people?

We are designing our game for people who are currently learning about graphing in math. This topic is a bit more simple, so it will be in the range of 5th-8th grade.

• WHAT will your game teach the player about your topic? (Be specific!)

Our game will teach the player about following coordinates and using formulas to get to the destination. The coordinates include specific locations, and the formulas will have you go somewhere.

• WHERE does your game happen?

Our game happens in a city with a map that acts like a graph. The city will be divided up into sectors, that are a block in size.

• HOW does your game world teach the player about your topic?

The game will teach the player about graphing as they will follow their map as if it were a graph. They go to a specific coordinate or follow a formula to get upgrades to defeat the robots.

• WHY is a game a better way of understanding your topic than a quiz?

The game requires you to use prior knowledge of graphing, but teaches it through hints and tricks you get through the game.
