Examination Chess

me-10099 Examination Chess

"Examination Chess" was created in Hong Kong by three young authors, two of whom are currently in Primary 5 and one in Primary 3.

Since examinations are an inevitable stage and fact of modern life, we wondered if there could be a small game that would allow people experiencing examination stress to face exams with a boost of positive energy through a relaxing game. This led us to the idea of "chess." Because we have always encouraged children to read more, interact with physical books and objects, play board games, chess, and card games, and stay away from electronic products and avoid indulging in the virtual world of the internet, we, as parents, worked with our children to design and create "Examination Chess."

When you encounter the "Distracted Skeleton" character, you get distracted and move back two spaces. During an exam, encountering questions you don't know can make you anxious. Fortunately, if you meet "Princess Calm" who helps you, you get to roll the dice one more time... We believe this will bring a little resonance and encouragement to child players.

"Examination Chess" was created by 3 primary students in Hong Kong.

Examinations are one of the most important event in every stages of our life, what if we can create something fun and positive to relief the stress given by the the examinations? Reading, exploring are what we wanted to focus on teaching our children, board games, chess and card games can also take them away from the electronic devices. This is why we invented "Examination chess".

When encountered "Distracted Skeleton", player must move 2 steps backward, representing the anxiety of not knowing the answer of the question. Though, meeting "Princess Calm" can give you a chance to roll another dice. We believe this game can bring player a little resonance and encouragement to study.
