THE ASSOCIATION of Southeast Asian Nation Foundation (AF) is set to launch in July a PC game that aims to provide a fun learning activity to the youth and give them useful information on the 10 member countries of the ASEAN.
AF executive director Filemon Uriarte Jr. presented the ASEAN Quest game during a memorandum of agreement signing between the AF and the Department of Science and Technology (DOST) in Makati City. Uriarte showed a box version of the game as well as the opening cut scene.
Uriarte described ASEAN Quest as primarily a single-player role-playing game where players have to navigate through several, albeit short, levels. There are portions of real-time strategy, trivia, a spy game and even a "build" game. Much of the game focuses on the cultural nuances of the 10 member countries of the ASEAN.
Some of the mini-games are patterned after some of the popular PC games such as Tomb Raider, Final Fantasy, Warcraft and StarCraft. However, the difference is that there is no indication of violence in ASEAN Quest.
De La Salle University was tapped to develop the game and was awarded a $90,000 grant in 2007 for the project.
The game will be launched during the upcoming ASEAN Youth Science Summit, which will be part of the National Science and Technology Week from July 1 to 11. A gaming competition featuring ASEAN Quest for the participants and delegates will be held during the Youth Science Summit.
Uriarte said the commercial price of the game could reach between P300 and P500.

Established in 1997 the Asean Quest game aims to promote ASEAN awareness and identity. I discovered an amazing fact about this game through a news source "Since its establishment, the Foundation has supported over 100 projects amounting to nearly US$ 20 million and provided training to over 18,000 ASEAN nationals," now isn't that pure inspiration?

This is an interesting approach to learning and education. Children are known to be attracted to video games and including the educational agenda in these games could lead to a fun way of learning. This method is already getting popular and I'm sure it will be an alternative to fake transcripts.

I suppose the educational game is made for the young children. Is this game addictive ? It's a danger for the children brain ? Best regards. cazare costinesti

Psychologists always say that games facilitate the cognitive development of children. They are faced with rules, they get a social view upon authority, they learn this way how to extend or restrain their freedom. Games sometimes teach them how to approach their creativity or their own learning style. I find my son very into Jewel Quest 2 lately and he tells me he is enjoying the African history throughout the game. And this is stimulating his visual memory, for he seems to have acquired a lot of information about the African people.
