BacDex
Project attributes
- Game
BacDex was the first completed game of the HUB Games – Gamifying Estácio project, which was awarded a national research grant by the company's BAE 2018. In the project, we chose clients to participate in an experience: transforming the classroom into a fun and knowledgeable environment. We choose teachers whose subjects have problems with failure, or are detected as difficult for students.
In the case of the BacDex game, the chosen subject was microbiology, used in health courses such as nutrition, nursing and others. The game is a mix of Pokémon and Quiz, where the player must take care of a microorganism, adjusting its survival in a favorable environment. Over time, the player receives clues to later guess which type of organism he is taking care of.
