ABSTRACT

As one of the most rapidly developing types of games in recent years, serious games have been widely used or theoretically can be widely used in many fields because of their characteristics such as imparting knowledge, training professional skills, and simulating real situations. In addition, serious games are relatively cheap, widely available, and fun, which has led to a growing interest in them. In this article, we try to apply serious games to one of the most important branches of environmental protection: Recycle The River Trash projects. The project is a serious game based on the Unity 3D engine, and it also tells the player what the trash in the river is and how to simply classify it for environmental protection. In addition, there will be some emergencies that will also have an impact on the environment. The project consists of several static and dynamic 3D environments and models, showing the differences between the rivers in different environments. At the same time, different types of trash are designed for different rivers in different environments, so that the game has more accurate information and better educational significance. Allows the player to clean up river trash and sort through it with simple actions and positive feedback for successful completion of a level.
