Microsoft KidLearn Game Prototype

This prototype, built in Flash, was created to demonstrate the concept of teaching children in emerging markets such as China and India to read and speak English through interactive games.

This game concept is a role playing game in which the child makes her way through a story in which she has to listen to and follow directions, make choices and solve puzzles. The primary element being demonstrated is the built in support system. The system provides help in the form of English and Chinese audio and text that is revealed progressively as the child requests it. The level of support is dependent on the child’s level of English skills.
