MasterLab

Part of a research project “MasterLab – Challenge the Science” is a serious game designed to help high school students to self-evaluate the adequacy of their educational background in view of a university degree program in Chemistry. The project is developed by a joint working group at the Universities of Bologna and Parma and IV Productions.

The game

Students will explore a vast, challenging world to discover in this HTML5 cross platform adventure RPG game. The player moves throughout different rooms, each containing a different puzzle to solve. The puzzles consist of basic chemistry, mathematics and physics problems at a high school difficulty level and require virtual laboratory operations, measurements and calculations. The puzzles are built up and “gamified” in a modular manner, so they can be quickly written by the experts involved in the project.
