The search for the lost fire
Adventure orienteering in Fljótsdal - *Only in Icelandic!*
The search for the lost fire is a family orientation game for phones. Age 6+ is recommended due to the length of the game.
A dragon that inhabits the East has lost the ability to breathe fire. In order for him to be able to protect the East from the evil forces that are attacking us, you need to help him regain his power. His friends are scattered around Fljótsdalur. They help you find clues.
The game is only in Icelandic and accessible through the app turfhunt. You have to drive between stations and it takes about 3-5 hours to discover and complete the 10 stations in the game. The game was made with grants from Fljótsdalshreppur community fund. It is a good example of how simple game design can be used to communicate local history and culture as well as being a tool for better distribution of tourists. The game is illustrated by Aldís Anna Þorsteinsdóttir.
