This is a little adventure game called ‘Daja’s Adventure’ where the player has to help Daja, the fictional character, to find a powerful gem inside a volcano. There are three scenes where the player solves three different problems. For example:

• In the first scene, the player has to help Daja to move the bricks that are blocking the entrance to the volcano and find a small button to go to the next scene.

  (Scene 1 – Forest)

• Or in the third scene where Daja has to unlock the chest that is full of gems and has to find the most powerful ‘lively’ gem in order to complete her adventure.

  (Scene 3 – Chest of Gems)

These types of mini-puzzles are usually in various mystery games. As big gamer, I have tried to use few simple examples from other games and place them onto my small interactive narrative. This little game is more likely to be played by children from ages 4-9, as it is short and simple.

I have drawn digitally on Adobe Photoshop on tablet for most of the scenes. I have also used several stock photos from the Internet and modified them to match the theme of the story.

Overall, I find this interactive narrative moderate. I had expected that I would be able to place more interaction. However, I had encountered several technical problems therefore I had to keep it simpler than I wanted to.
