Post: Educational Alternate Reality Game

Posted by Jay D'Ambrosio on 5/03/08

    Over the past few years I have created an educational
    alternate reality game called The Hexagon Challenge. The
    Hexagon Challenge is an educational alternate reality game
    (ARG) in which students will attempt to solve a mystery by
    infiltrating a secret society, answering initiation
    questions regarding history, science, mathematics, world
    languages, and the arts. They will contact and be contacted
    by various fictitious characters via email, telephone, and
    instant messenger who will provide clues that enable them to
    continue their quest to discover the truth about a
    mysterious artifact known only as the Hexagon. Up to six
    extra credit points will be awarded along the way, which can
    be applied to your course if you so choose.

    I'd appreciate any feedback regarding your experiences with
    this game. To try it, go to:

    and click "The Hexagon Challenge."
