Our sincere thanks for everyone supporting our educational research! While we will still continue to investigate how edutainment game projects might fit into a curriculum, we also want to know how this particular edutainment project would do as a game experience with no strings attached. We want to learn more on how players feel towards it as a game instead of a learning tool!
