Lunar Quest
The latest massively multiplayer online game (MMOG) is not only fun — it's educational! RETRO Lab's Lunar Quest video game combines traditional video game play with the basic principles of kinematics.
Players arrive on the moon as Lunar Colonization Authority Cadets who are tasked with colonizing the moon for regular human habitation. Players solve puzzles, complete quests, and interact with fellow "Cadets" to make the moon habitable. To master the game, players must learn and then apply basic physics concepts, such as performing vector addition or calculating an object's velocity and acceleration.
Although the game is not yet complete, you can explore part of the world through Multiverse virtual game world. To download the free multiverse interface-which runs on Windows 2000 OS or higher- visit www.multiverse.net. To learn more about Lunar Quest — including information on how you can participate with the pedagogical testing of it — contact the RETRO Lab at ucfretrolab.org/.
