If kids can travel through time to save the Earth, they can shape the future too.

🧑🏻‍💻 Design Philosophy 設計理念

這是一款以永續發展目標（SDGs）為核心的教育桌遊， 設計過程中，我關心的不只是遊戲體驗，而是玩家如何在面對價值衝突時進行選擇。 這成為我觀察「行為動機 × 社會責任」交會點的一次原型設計實驗。

🔍 Project Overview 專案概述

Green Heroes is a hybrid educational board game designed to raise awareness of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) among young learners. The game merges time-travel storytelling with real-world sustainability choices, guiding players through historical events toward a better 2030.

⏱️ Project Process 專案流程

Concept Framing & Problem Definition

Identified the gap: Only 1 in 10 people in the UK are aware of the SDG framework. Mapped the need for accessible, engaging tools that promote climate action and critical thinking in early education.

Game Mechanics & Storyboarding

Co-developed the core gameplay loop:

• Choose from 17 SDG-themed animal characters
• Travel from pre-industrial eras to 2030 via timeline progression
• Face sustainability-based decision events with trade-offs between speed, risk, and values

Educational Design Strategy

Integrated SDG 4 (Quality Education) and SDG 17 (Partnerships for the Goals) to ensure curricular alignment. Planned school outreach in Manchester, targeting environmental science and social studies.

AR Companion App Ideation

Proposed dual-mode format (physical + mobile), with app support for:

• AR animations during decision events
