The devastating earthquakes that occurred on 06.02.2023 seriously affected our city. Many of our citizens have lost their lives and our young people have turned into profiles with limited opportunities. As Hatay Mustafa Kemal University, we aimed to design a sustainable and environmentally friendly game in addition to information seminars to introduce EU youth opportunities to these young people, and to both entertain and inform young people with the game we designed. The game we have developed can be played by 2-6 people and provides information as well as engaging young people in a fun competition with its balance and time strategy.
The game is played thanks to question patterns containing Eurodesk opportunities sandwiched between wooden boards. Initially, the boards are in a balanced position, forming a tower.
Question plaques stuck between the board contain questions/suggestions about Eurodesk opportunities. The player chooses a board so as not to upset the balance and tries to answer the question on it against the clock. If correct, it gets points. If it is wrong, the other party has the right to reply. The Eurodesk representative introduces the relevant Eurodesk opportunity in detail and directs you to the opportunity web page via the QR code on the question plate. The game continues until the balance is broken and the tower collapses.
As a result of this material, young people are enabled to both learn about opportunities and have fun with a time-based balance game.
