Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a game service system,

Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention relates to a field-experience type functional game, and relates to a game played in the background of an actual experiential learning space. Although the present invention is basically implemented on a mobile platform, the present invention relates to a functional game in which a user interacts with a unit while moving through an actual experiential learning space, rather than a virtual space, and plays the game while receiving a quest.

A serious game is a game developed to find a way to experience a virtual situation or to solve a specific problem. It is applied to various fields such as health, therapy, and education. In other words, a functional game is a game that has developed from a game in order to pursue fun and pleasure, and designed to be able to learn contents such as science, medical care, and defense by using various game formats in a fun way.

Together with the expectation of adults, children are often not interested in finding natural spaces together. What if our children are able to see something new in their natural surroundings while enjoying and motivating them to play with it?

However, children are only interested in online mobile games, especially massive multiplayer online role playing games (MMORPGs), and they are not interested in experiencing and learning in nature.

MMORPG is a role-playing game where more than a dozen players can enjoy the same virtual space at the same time through the Internet. MMORPGs use maps, characters, players, and units as components. When characters travel on the map, they interact with the unit when they encounter the unit, so they can get items and experience.

Syntax of MMORPG gives a player a quest to give the player the ability to gain the character's growth by allowing the character to acquire the item or experience value while performing the task. However, the MMORPG has the problem that the character grows through the interaction with the unit in the online game, but the player itself does not grow in terms of empirical aspect or knowledge.

If the map of MMORPG is corresponded to the natural space of reality, the character in the game is corresponded to our children in the real experience space, and the quest is given to our children to interact with the units in the real experience space If you successfully complete the assignment, you will be able to play very fun in the field experience space.
