Karoke Quest

FOCUS: How does sound + imagination drive collaborative gameplay for children?

APPROACH:

• Conducted workshops with children to test drawing-based character creation and group game mechanics

• Studied behavioral responses to rhythm, storytelling, and teamwork.

• Built a prototype with iterative feedback loops to refine interaction flow and improve accessibility.

CONCEPT:

Help restore harmony to time in this musical adventure. Sing or play with sounds as players collect musical fragments through various eras, from pre-historic beats to futuristic tunes, and work together to create their own "Time Song" to return the cosmic rhythm and balance.

This narrative structure supports:

• Creativity, Expression

• Social interaction

• Learning fundamentals of music (rhythm, melody, harmony)

OUTCOME:

• A functional playable prototype was showcased at Cinekid, where kids were actively:

• Sang, composed, researched, and shared together

• Progressed through 3 time-travel chapters: Rhythmic Roots → Melodic Discovery → Harmonic Synthesis Confidence in self-expression built through sound The result is an engaging, educational hybrid of play and music — proof that imagination + interaction can fuel collaborative learning.
