Cycle 2_Week 2

If I were to create a game it would be called Survive The World. Before you play, you get to name and pick the gender of your character. Then you give them an outfit to wear before you start the first challenge. First, your character starts off in a place called Ice Landic Wonders. Ice Landic Wonders is a deserted ice land and your character has to survive and reach main land with only supplies from your old broken down pick up truck. Sadly, the supplies aren't packaged and manufactured. You only have the hub cab, wires, oil, old clothes and the insulation in the car's seats. Then you're off! You also have to out run (or slide) leopard seals. When you reach main land, you are then transported off to a tropical island. You think it's deserted but yet again you're in trouble. You need to learn how to avoid the killer natives poisonous animals and insects. Then you are transported to a desert, after which is an active volcano, then in the middle of an ocean. There are levels after levels and there will always be new challenges added. The things you could learn in Survive The World are how to survive in different areas of the world. Remember the seat's insulation? You could rip that out and wrap it around your feet to avoid frost bite. The message my game sends to the players is tho always be prepared in difficult situations and to make the best with what you have. You could overcome these challenges by looking through the supplies you are given through each level and working with them. What makes my games fun are that challenges and the actual facts you get from the game. Also the adrenaline rush. ( Like being chased by natives or an ice monster.) I'm sure they'd love my game! I know I would.

Cycle 2_Week 1

One game I usually play is Spider Solitaire and regular Solitaire on the computer. Sorry there is no website for it. It's just in the games section in the programs on the computer. The goal of these games is to try and get all the cards in order. It can be difficult but most times for me it's not. What I learn from playing the game is the be fast and to be quick with my brain. This game can be used educationally by memorizing numbers.


Next, there's Boggle. Once again there is no website. This game can be played on the DS or with the regular board game. The goal of this game is to be the person with the most words in the jumbled letters. That's only if you're playing with others. When you play with by yourself, you just try to get as many words as you can. What I can learn from this is many different words. This can be used educationally for you to expand your vocabulary.


Another game I play is called Cooking Mama. Once again there is no website.(That I know of.) The one I play is for the Nintendo DS. I play Cooking Mama 1 and 2. This games can be educational and occasionally frustrating. It's frustrating when I don't get it right. What this game can teach me is how to cook foreign dishes. It's pretty fun.

There are tons ore games but if I wrote them all I wouldn't have time to finish. So I hope you liked it. These games are just a few of the many games I play. Some of the games I play are educational. Others are just for fun. So this concludes my blog.
