Cancer Research - Bust a Cell
03 Jul 2006
Following a long pitch process, we were selected by Cancer Research, to produce a resource for their education and learning department. The requirement was of an eLearning nature but, because it was aimed at school age, with an even greater leaning towards fun that might normally be the case. The brief was, essentially, to create an online game that children would want to play but to incorporate both a learning element and a quiz. Our solution was to build a space-invader concept that took part in different areas of the body, fighting different cancers and explaining different learning points. These points would then be tested at each stage of the game. All of the elements within the game were related to our defence mechanism and how it combats cancer. All of the graphics and content were stylised but accurate and sympathetic and it was intended to be a first stage of learning for people about what causes cancer and how to help prevent it.
