Interactive Design for Game and Web Technology

Game Analysis

In this task we were asked to analyse a number of games critically. This would help us choose a specific and suitable audience target for our games. I took my time to look at four games.

Dora the Explorer

This is an adventure game with its main target being children. It is a game designed in a form of a series which help children know the name of objects, animals and other things around them. It is a very interactive game because it gives the child the chance to help find a missing object, place,thing or person.

Pokemon                                                                                                                                                 

This game is designed for a much older and more matured children. It is also an adventure game  with a bit of action here and there as well as fantasy. This game was published by Nintendo. This is aninteractive game which allows children identify these strange creatures by name. They also get the chance to pick their own pokemon from the start of the game according to their preference. They also pick battles and can also link gameboys to play with friends.              

Tenchu                                                                                                                                             

This game is a ninja game. It is an action game with adventure as well. The original platform on which it was released was playstation. This game is for more matured people preferably teens from. It also requires parental guidance due to its violent plots. This interactive game allows the audience to choose a character to start the game with. He also is given the chance to use multiple fighting moves at a time. The are  also tutorials as you play to show you the best way to complete your missions and also assist the audience in learning new fighting moves.                                                                      

The Swing Golf                                                                                                                                          This game is one designed in my opinion for older people who can not be as active as they used to be. This game is played on nintendo DS. It gives the audience the chance to play golf from the comforts of their homes. simply by selecting mode and swinging the controllers of the game console in any direction.                                                                                                                                     

These game have provided me with ideas on how to design my games according to my audience order to create a suitable game about Mantin with the information I have.
