HOW TO MAKE a RAISE GAME?
To create a RAISE game one should be aware of a sequence of steps
involved in game development. The Toolkit offers the opportunity to
future users to become familiar with some key issues of game design
and offers practical advice for the development of a RAISE game:
• useful tips on how to organise nature conservation activities;
• examples of stories, myths, heroes, history, endemic structure,
animals of the protected areas that can provide the inspiration of a
game scenario;
• examples of games created during the piloting of the RAISE
methodology;
• a step-by-step guide for the creation of a location-based game;
• an introduction to the use of online LBG design platforms;
• an ICT toolkit useful throughout the entire game development
process.
