It can be used as a tool to gather information about the Japanese language, behavioural rules and culture in a playful way, either for pre-trip planning or for raising interest in another culture. In order to complete the game, the player has to investigate the 3D environment, collect items, combine them and talk to people. the learning content is split up into the subject areas: language basics, behavior & etiquette and culture & society It is the result of a research project and gives information about the game evaluation session.
  13. ICURA (2010) The goals of the evaluation are: Finding out, how much information the game communicates, Finding out, which information about the travel destination is considered useful in general. Finding out, if the information ICURA communicates is considered useful and ifthe game arouses interest in other cultures. Finding out, if the game is fun to play and if the design of the 3D environment isconsidered as convincing. The whole evaluation process will be divided into five stages: Pre Questionnaire, Pre Test, Playing the game, Post Test, Post Questionnaire. The test will be a Single Choice/Multiple Choice test that is filled in before and after playing ICURA. The results will be compared and visualized by a learning curve.
