Why do various creatures have different lifespans?
In the interactive game "The Diversity of Life Histories," we've turned scientific research into engaging and accessible interactive comics. Paired with mini-games to challenge players, we use comic panels and dialogue text boxes to adapt layout configurations suitable for different topics. The unique reading sequence of comics guides viewers through explanatory text and animations, making answering questions more enjoyable.
This experience aims to help audiences grasp the survival tactics of different life forms on Earth. It provides insights into how scientists classify and analyze the diverse lifespans of organisms.
In the permanent exhibition project of National Taiwan Science Education Center, the primary challenge lay in planning content suitable for audiences of all ages. Converting complex university-level biology research into interactive experiences understandable for 7-to-12-year-olds was the primary hurdle.
