The sick as online game in the universe
Introduction
In the past few weeks we were trying out a new game called Interland. We were learning about online safety and what a digital citizenship is. This game was made from The Awesome team at Google!
Digital Learning Object
The Interland Interactive game made by Google Inc.
Reflection
I had no idea that a game learning about online safety could actually be as fun as this! I definitely did learn a lot more about Phishing, Scam Emails and strong passwords whilst playing these super-fun games! I would definitely recommend everyone to give it a go, I mean who knows, you might learn something new! In this game, there are 4 main levels which are: Reality river, Mindful Mountain, Tower of Treasure, and Kind Kingdom.
Reality River is basically a level where the player is set in a river trying to cross it. To cross the river the player must answer the questions correctly in order to move up a step. The questions vary but mainly focus on Online Phishing and scam/fake emails. The player is shown many possible answers to the question but only one of the answers are correct!
The second level is called Mindful mountain where the level is set in a mirror-reflection game. The goal is to line up the pulsing beam up against angled mirrors in order to hit the correct people along the way. The goal is not to share the wrong information with people who should not see it.
The third level is a level called Tower of Treasure where the aim of the game is to run in a temple-run like platform whilst collecting different letters/symbols on a keyboard to form a hacker-proof password.This mode is trying to create a strong as password. .
The fourth and final level is called Kind Kingdom. In this level, the player is in a side-scroller type of game where the goal is to eliminate all cyber-bullies from saying mean things about the other internauts (that is; the online people in this game). You have to either trap the bullies or alternatively report them so they can do no more harm to the internauts. You also have to cheer up the internauts with what they have gone through so you can do this by picking up hearts around the map and giving them to the sad internauts which makes them all happy again!
