This game, created by our french partner Infinitivity Design Labs is the 4th Project Result of our Flood Stopping Project. Get ready to embark on a thrilling adventure that combines the excitement of gaming with the importance of active citizenship and flood risk management knowledge!

Our game is more than just a game – it’s an educational tool that revolutionizes the way we approach flood management strategies for climate change adaptation.

At the heart of Flood Stopping lies a noble mission: to empower teachers and students to become active and committed citizens while equipping them with essential knowledge about flooding risk and management. Players are thrust into the heart of various simulation scenarios intricately linked with the rich learning content derived from the Flood Stopping innovative educational tools created in the last months by the other partners of this project. Through storytelling, mapping, and gaming AR tools, players are empowered to take on different roles and tackle various challenges head-on.

 

AR technology enhances our perception of the real world by overlaying digital data onto it. In this game, there is a marker – based AR overlay since each challenge merges physical activity with virtual elements in order to create augmented reality learning environments. Scanning QR codes with their smartphones, players, on site or online, can play the game using the digitized information conveyed by the project  through videos, podcasts and digital maps. Also, 3D objects are placed into the player’s environment as part of the game scenarios. Players have also the chance to play a  projection based AR scenario, using VR glasses.

This is a platform for learning and growth. Each scenario is carefully designed to promote critical thinking and collaboration skills, as players must work together to devise effective flood management strategies. Whether you’re a student, a teacher, a youth worker or a youth trainer city planner, Flood Stopping offers a unique opportunity to step into the shoes of those who are dealing with situations before, during or after a flood.

What sets Flood Stopping Game apart is its innovative approach to learning. By merging physical activity with virtual elements, the game creates an immersive experience that is both intrinsically motivating and educational. Players don’t just passively absorb information – they actively engage with the material, honing their digital literacy skills and gaining a deeper understanding of the challenges posed by flooding.
