About the game:
Kr8cht! (loosely translated as ‘strenghts’) is a serious game for children 11-13 to help them find out their strenghts and interests, in order to help them make the right choices for secundary school. In the game, you help 8 hero’s to re-conquer the domains of their kingdom through exploring and solving story-puzzles. The way you choose to do this, indicates what subjects (or ‘domains’) would suit you in school.

What I did:
The studio hired me to streamline and add to the basic story they had developed for this game. The characters and most of the puzzles were already there, but the overall quest could use more details and the exploratory cutscenes weren’t developed just yet. Via the design document and the backstories of all of the 8 heroes I was able to craft storylines for the studio to work with.
