English“RAWsiko – Materials Around Us” (RAWsiko – DV) is an educational digital game about the distribution of critical raw materials in the world, their use in the modern technologies and why access to them is pivotal. The players will experience the complexity of the raw material supply that occurs behind some everyday life devices such as smartphones, flat screens and lamps, but also behind the plants for the transition to the renewable energies such as solar cells, wind turbines and electric cars. Students can play both together in organized class-wide game sessions, or on their own free time against friends and family or other people accessing the game remotely. RAWsiko DV is offered in different versions: Online Version, to maximize the compatibility with most of desktop operating systems and web browsers, and Dedicated Clients-based Versions, for maximum performance and stability.
RAWsiko is set in a fantasy future world where the main producer of critical RMs decides to cut the export to the rest of the planet, and therefore a “RM rush” begins. The players have to fulfil some lists of critical RMs that are key components of different devices that they have to build. In this way the players will experience the complexity of the raw material supply that occurs behind some everyday life devices such as flat screens and fluorescent lamps, but also behind the plants for the transition to the renewable energies such as solar cells and wind turbines. Students can play both together in organized, class-wide game sessions, or on their own free time against friends and family or other people accessing the game remotely.
