Skills used to produce the gam
There are several skills that are engaged and
developed during the game development. The skills
have been discussed below.
• Creativity- Creativity skills play a major role during
the game development. When a student engages
in performance of several tasks during the project
report, then they tend to develop creativity within
them. The creativity skills are significant in order
to develop and structure the report in a significant
manner.
• research skills- While developing the game, the
student tends to develop an understanding
regarding the topic while conducting a research
upon several information as well as material facts.
Hence, the students are likely to perform well in
context of the research skills which also enhances
the concentration level of the student.
• Time management skills- Time management skills
are another skills that are developed during the
completion of several tasks in the project report.
When the tasks seem complex, then the projects
are further simplified into smaller denomination in

also facilitates using the time in a productive
manner by performing several personal and
professional tasks.• Hosseini, H. and Perweiler, L., 2019, February. Are You

• Game has been designed in order to
explain the students regarding the
academic integrity . For this
purpose, the students of the batch
are divided into four groups wherein
there will be a total of 12 balls
comprising of 4 different colours.
• There will be three balls of each
colour namely red, blue, yellow and
green. Each player from each team
will be required to pick a ball. After
that each pick will be supported
with few questions in context to the
academic integrity as well as
plagiarism.
• Each question will have 10 points
and when the team reaches 30
points from 4 questions will be from
