About this game

Gongbot is an educational game, for Greek children aged 6-12. I developed it in association with a team of educators, hoping that it will prove to be a fun learning experience and that it will allow me to teach children what an adventure game is. Featuring an original story that draws children's attention, elegant colorful graphics, puzzles that will put their minds to test and a large sum of questions from their school's curriculum, the game helps the children learn while they're too busy having fun to realize it.

The story begins on a distant planet, where two alien scientists are summoned to a council of wise beings. We learn that they consider their homeland to be too boring and barren, and they wish to begin a search for a colorful planet. The two scientists, the heroes of our story, will lead this expedition aided by an all-purpose robot called Gongbot. Unfortunately for them, their spaceship malfunctions right before they crash-land on Earth, and their robot is shattered to pieces.

Gongbot plays like a classic 3rd person point & click adventure game. You walk around the area, click on hotspots to get a description, interact with your environment and pick up any object you can. You can switch between the male and female character at any point, at the press of a button. The game features professional voice acting recorded at a studio, as well as musical scores specifically hand picked to match the theme and appeal to children of that age.
