The Pontchartrain Conservancy is an organization that prioritizes hands-on work intheir efforts to restore the lake basin. When audiences and visitors leave theConservancy and return home, their interaction with the organization comes to anend. Forcing any who are curious to resort to the organization’s static online textresources. My solution offers a digital experience that allows audiences to engagewith and learn dynamically about the Pontchartrain Conservancy and their efforts incoastal restoration, from the comfort of their own home. Lighthouse Adventures is astory-based role-playing game that follows Pont, an employee at the PontchartrainConservancy, who is tasked with uncovering the source behind a mysterious rise ofpollutants in the lake basin before it harms the city of New Orleans! This solution notonly makes education hands-on and dynamic, but transforms the learning process toone that is enjoyable and memorable.
