Client: LMDDC-INTERNAL

Tools: Unity, Photoshop,H5P

Rapunzel is an immersive VR game that transforms the classic fairy tale into a learning adventure. Players explore the tower room by room, looking for hidden objects. But each item is locked behind a short educational question - which players must answer correctly to receive the next riddle. The riddles create a trail of clues that lead to the next item, pushing players to observe, think critically, and apply knowledge. The game comes with an authoring tool, allowing educators to customize the questions and adapt the game to different subjects - from history to science. Rapunzel blends exploration, narrative, and problem-solving into a hidden object game that’s engaging and educational.

Rapunzel also integrates H5P authoring for teachers, providing an easy way to create and manage interactive questions directly within the game. Its content-agnostic design makes it suitable for any subject, turning traditional quizzes into an entertaining, interactive experience. This playful modality keeps students engaged and motivated as they learn through exploration, puzzles, and discovery.
