Interland - Have a look!



Reflection: In my analysis, I isolated my thoughts for the concept and the design of every level in Interland.

First is Reality River, at this level, you'll be given an idea on how to avoid scammers or hackers. There are questions to be answered and there will be choices, you just need to choose the best answer. The design is a river with rocks and that river runs through the flow with fact and fiction, and there will be blocks that you are going to jump on when you answer the questions on each platform until you reached the other side of the river. Second is Tower of Treasure, at this level you will learn how to create a unique password that is strong and difficult to hack. The design is like temple run. But in this game, you will run on to a dessert with high rocks and you will be going to collect some blocks with small letters, capital letters, numbers and symbols to create a phase which will be your password. If you bumped on a rock, the last two letters that you collected will be taken by the outrun hacker. Third is Mindful Mountain, at this level, it teaches you on what and whom to share something carefully online. The design is there will be a machine that has a light on it and you need to bounce each post off the mirrors to get it to the right internet you wanna share the information with. Fourth is the Kind Kingdom, at this level, it tells you on how to spread positivity online, and help people that are suffering and affected by cybercrime. The design is you will jump on a land and there will be internuts on some of the lands and you need to send them good vibes, and there will also be the internut bullies and all you need to do is block and report the bullies.

Interland is made for young people to be an awesome and fearless explorers of the online world in a quest to deny hackers, sink phishers, one-up cyberbullies and outsmart overshares. It is good to have this kind of gaming website. You can learn something from it and apply to your internet usage. You can help people by letting them visit and play Interland, so they can be also an internet awesome!. I had fun on every level that I played in Interland. I am hoping that Interland will have more levels to play to become more interesting.
