This educational game is specifically designed for first-grade students, who will encounter friendly animals and engage in interactive math challenges. The ultimate objective is to improve their addition, subtraction, and comparison skills in a fun and immersive way. Game Story: A group of young explorers have found themselves in the midst of a magical jungle that's teeming with colorful creatures. Their quest begins as they encounter a wise math guide who explains that the jungle is full of hidden numbers waiting to be discovered. To progress through the different scenes, the adventurers must solve basic addition and subtraction problems and master the concepts of less than and greater than. Storyboard: The game takes place in various scenes such as the Jungle Entrance, where the guide introduces the players to the quest.
