隨著全球暖化與極端氣候日益加劇，環境教育的重要性愈發迫切。本專案設計一款針對8–12歲兒童的教育型桌遊，聚焦於海平面上升與冰層融化對動物棲地的影響。遊戲透過具象化的水位上升機制，模擬氣候變遷歷程，使玩家能直觀感受棲地逐步消失的過程與危機。
玩家於遊戲中扮演守護者，透過策略決策與合作行動，拯救受威脅的動物並維持生態平衡。過程中結合情境事件與水資源管理機制，引導玩家理解環境變遷與人類行為之間的關聯，進一步培養問題意識與責任感。
本設計將抽象的環境議題轉化為可操作的體驗歷程，強化理解與同理心，使學習由知識層面延伸至情感感受。此外，透過可調整人數與變化式關卡設計，提升遊戲互動性與重玩價值，實現寓教於樂的設計目標。
As global warming and extreme climate conditions intensify, environmental education has become increasingly urgent. This project presents an educational board game for children aged 8–12, focusing on rising sea levels and melting ice and their impact on animal habitats. The game uses a tangible water-level simulation to show how habitats gradually disappear.
Players act as guardians, making strategic decisions and cooperating to rescue endangered animals while maintaining ecological balance. The gameplay includes scenario-based events and water resource management, helping players understand the link between environmental change and human behavior.
This design turns abstract environmental issues into an interactive learning experience that enhances understanding and empathy. The rules adapt to the number of players, increasing flexibility and interaction while keeping a consistent scenario, improving replay value and supporting engaging educational gameplay.
