This blog is another edition of  game “The Secret of a Healthy Diet”. Some propositions were made by players about how to change the game. We considered all of them, now we are trying to incorporate which one would be the best.

The title of the game is always the same. I think some considerations will be made in order to make the game more interesting. For example, one critic of game suggested that the game could be a competition game. This suggestion was analyzed by the designer, and found that it could work. However, any modification that might be made in the game will be focused on how to reinforce the learning objective, that is how to facilitate middle school students making good and healthy food choice that would boost their learning ability.

As we mentioned earlier, the game is now in a phase of test. We already conducted several tests. Most of the players found the game playable, and does supports the learning experience. However, we know that the game is not perfect, and that is why we really give a lot of interest to the critics. For, they are the only mean that could help us to attain our goal.
