Tesouro Perdido (The Lost Treasure) - Game

Tesouro Perdido (The Lost Treasure) is an Educational Game that helps 5th-grade children to learn geography and cardinal points.
It is a Treasure hunting game where the player must move according to the directions of the cardinal points to get to the end without making a mistake.
This game is a part of the project "Ensino Criativo", in English “Creative Learning”, the idea was to develop a website with multiple minigames to help the learning of content addressed in the 5th year of elementary school.
In Brazil, at the end of the 5th grade, many children go through the most complex transitional period of their lives up to that moment. In addition to entering pre-adolescence, they must face a different system of teaching (pluridocent regime), which is something different than they had experienced before.
The transition to the 6th grade can be very frightening, so it is important that the contents covered up to the 5th year be a strong base of knowledge, and not another difficulty for the following year.
Seeking to use the games as an attraction for the study, the minigames of the “Ensino Criativo” project aim to make use of the fun and the repetition of the content taught in the classroom, as a way of reinforcing the contents difficult for the students.
To develop this project, I used a mix adaptation of two methodologies, called “Project E” and the well know Design Thinking.
