The use of game-based apps in e-learning has become a relevant trend with the diffusion of smart mobile devices. This is particularly true in language learning, where new captivating word games become a mean to enlarge vocabulary and improve the lexical accuracy of the user. This work presents MagicWord, a game based on widely known game mechanisms, but specifically designed and developed in order to support beginners learning Italian through an A1 level e-learning course. The paper presents the design and implementation of a demo version of MagicWord, through the main challenges encountered during its creation. |
