problem
Younger generations often perceive traditional Chinese architecture as distant and static, disconnected from their daily lives and digital experiences, causing cultural craftsmanship to fade from collective memory.
solution
Reimagine the Yangshi Lei architectural legacy through interactive gameplay, transforming cultural heritage into an engaging creative experience that bridges history, education, and play.
How might we transform the experience of learning about ancient architecture into an engaging act of creation and play?

Interview
There are big barriers to the dissemination of Stylized Lei architecture, so I wanted to gain insight into the different perspectives and views of various parties. Therefore, I interviewed ordinary university students, architecture students, and senior architecture professors.

Iteration
During the ideation and manufacturing process, I conducted three rounds of user tests to ensure that the game details and flow met my expectations. I also used the FSS test for evaluation.
FSS Test & Score
FSS evaluates user experience by measuring engagement, ease of use, and cognitive load during an interaction.
