Dear all,
Following the success of previous edition, on June 6 at 16h, M-ITI will again host the Playtest Session, in which the students of the Game Design class will be demonstrating their final projects (games). The students from the Master of Interactive Media Design and Master of Informatics Engineering, have been working together in teams to develop interactive experiences as well as traditional games. This year's games are not only fun, but also address mental and physical health, and have been co-designed with experts in the area.
The event will be held at M-ITI premises starting at 4pm. You are invited to join and experience the games. At the playtest there will be an immersive Virtual Reality experience and an interactive table game, plus 2 innovative board games for 2-4 players.
There will also be free food and drinks! Hope to see you all there!
Uncharted KAVE: The players will take the role of explorers having to work as a team to complete different types of challenges in order to win four precious stones. These challenges promote teamwork and communication. After acquiring all minerals they have to escape the cave. For the board game, two teams of two explorers will have to resort to the cards from the deck and create the path to the end of the cave - the team to escape wins. In the digital game, a team of two explorers have to solve several puzzles in order to continue their path towards the exit before the cave collapses.
EMPORIUM: We are a studio called Rehab Games and we have developed a digital game aimed at making people who have motor difficulties (but not only) to have an easier time while rehabilitating their motor skills. We also developed a board game following the same aesthetic and we need play testers to come and try them out! ... See MoreSee Less
