Cycle 2- Week 2
If I could design a game, it would be called Making a Living. It would be about life and how you can choose the path you want to go down like in the real world. The names of the characters will be whatever the player makes their avatar. Challenges the students will face are avatars built in trying to get them to do things bad. They have to choose if it's the right thing or the wrong thing. If they pick the wrong thing, it will be consequences like losing their job or losing something important. If they choose the right thing, they will get a boost in the game. After completing this challenge, students will take away life skills. Sometimes in the world, games teach people more things than real world things.

Gaming Is Educational
A game that I am currently playing is a game called CafeWorld. It can be found on Facebook if you have one. The goal of the game is to just make food so your waiters can serve the customers. The more food you make, the more customers you have, the more money you recieve, and the more points toward your next level. There are times on each food item, so you have to make sure you come back so the food won't spoil. From playing this game, I learn how to manage my time. I learn this because I would pick foods to make that are in my time schedule. I wouldm't make the things that are like 6 hours long beacuse I will be in school and it will surely go bad. This game can be used educationally because you learn skill and how to use time wisely.
Another game that I am currently playing is a game called BurgerShop. It can be found on the computer's game system that you have. The goal of the game is to serve all of the customers in the time given. If you lose a customer, the game is over. This is another food game.=) There are three different types of levels; breakfast, lunch and dinner. As you go throught them all, the game gets harder and harder. From playing this game, I learn the skill of timing things right. For example, if I serve a certain customer first with the biggest order, the other smaller orders will be easier becasue I got the other one out of the way. This game can be used educationally beacsue it teaches you persistance in things you are doing.
