Level Up 2 VET is a digital board game, where players navigate a 3D animated game board by rolling the dice and moving through the world.
Players navigate through a 3D immersive city environment deciding where to go and what avenues to travel
Players can roll the dice to move, access “change” cards and teleport around the board
Along the way, players have to collect as much experience as possible by picking cards, playing minigames, and managing their money and time!.
Players build XP by accessing different parts of the city and answering challenge questions
Players can also access mini-games to pick up extra points
Through playing and progressing in the game, players learn about what to consider in picking a career, what they will experience in training for that career, what it is like to work in that career and ultimately, where that career can take them.
The game can be played by players themselves to learn about the area of VET and what is involved in training and working in potential VET Careers
The game can also be played as part of a session with Career Guidance Professionals – either in a face-to-face session with a professional, or by themselves
The Mobile Digital Game developed by the project is called “Level Up 2 VET” and is available on the Apple App Store and the Google play store now!
