Simple on-line viral game

KLOO is a new language game that makes learning a language quick and easy. We want to give people a taster of how easy it is to play KLOO, by asking them to play a hand. This might be something we could send to potential customers, use for social marketing and also on our website. It has to be fun, simple and intuitive.

Simple KLOO Game

IMPORTANT TIP: Interested developers should go to the games page on the KLOO website and download the “Quick Start” rules – we are essentially trying to replicate this experience on-line.

Players are dealt a hand of 7 KLOO cards

The players must place the cards in the right colour order to create a sentence and translate as many words as possible to score points.

They get 1 point for every word in the sentence. If they make a sentence 7 cards long, they score 7 points. They get 1 point for each correct translation. So if they translate 5 cards in a 7 card sentence they score 7 + 5 = 12. Note that players can discover meanings on other KLOO cards. We recommend you watch the video at www.kloogame.com to see how this works.

The game is automatically scored.

After playing, they can send the game to another person to challenge them or they can go to the website to find out more and perhaps purchase some KLOO cards (which is the ultimate objective).

The designer should have experience and be able to show other simple games that he or she has produced. It must be easy and fun and clearly demonstrate how KLOO helps you build sentences and discover words in a foreign language.
