Cross-platform chemistry RPG
MasterLab lets high-school students explore the demands of a chemistry degree through practical challenges.
The objective
Students needed a way to assess their readiness before choosing a university chemistry degree.
The experience
In a cross-platform adventure, students explore rooms, solve chemistry, mathematics, and physics puzzles, and complete virtual laboratory tasks.
The results
The joint research group at the Universities of Bologna and Parma, working with IV Productions, gained a practical student self-assessment tool.
Its modular structure lets subject experts add content without rebuilding the game.
