Topic:
Festivals

Ideation/ concept:
Singapore is a multi-racial society and many different festivals are celebrated here. As the digital age bombards us, we do not interact with each other so often. Many times we do not interact with other races but rather hang out with friends of the same races. I want to create more awareness about how each race celebrates their festivals so that younger people will be able to understand each other cultures.

Plot:
Beginning – Introducing Singapore culture in general. Gameplay rules.

Middle – Introducing the festivals: Chinese New Year, Hari Raya, Deepavali, Christmas, etc. in details.
The do’s and don’ts, food, clothing and customs.

End – ?

Technology:
1. Draggable background, image hovering/ parallax scrolling in the inner pages
2. Physical board game
