New MMO Dragon Game


School of Dragons-The Game

I was notified today by a close friend of mine regarding a new game Dreamworks and JumpStart has been working on. The game is called School of Dragons which is an exciting new Massively Multiplayer Online game for kids in the age group 8 to 12 years. As the name suggests, it is a dragon based game that introduces kids in grades 3 to 7 to a wide range of engaging scientific lessons and exercises. There are 4 different locations in School of Dragons, each promising a different adventure. So, get set to meet your latest best friend – your very own pet dragon – and head out on an adventure that is likely to change the way you view educational games for good!

Meet Your New Best Friend at School of Dragons 

At School of Dragons, a player or new student will begin his quest from Berk, one of the 4 major locations. As he lands up in Berk, he will make acquaintance with Gobber at the dock and then go on to meet Hiccup near the boat. It is Hiccup who will then direct him to School – the second and also the most important destination at School of Dragons. It is here that Hiccup will lead the new player towards the Hatchery. In the hatchery, the player will collect an egg and hatch it. Once the egg hatches and a baby dragon comes into being, it is the responsibility of the player to take care of his new friend and train it. Players can farm and fish to help feed their pet dragons. As the relationship between the dragon and the player develops at the School of Dragons, one will encounter a world full of science and adventure and of course, flying! Fasten your seat belts now!

School of Dragons – A Fun Way to Learn 

At School, students will be able to play exciting games as well as learn the scientific method. For the latter, students will move over to School of Dragons’ Scientific Method area where they will meet Alchemist and learn about the method and its usage. As their understanding of the scientific method matures, students will be able to solve a variety of different science problems using the method. Once students have mastered the Scientific Method at School of Dragons, they can head out to the Scientific Experiment Lab. The Lab at the School of Dragons is home to both theoretical and practical lessons, appropriate for children in grades 3 to 7. From heating and cooling experiments, learning about the states of matter, and quests on learning how rocks are formed, to theoretical lessons (found in the Field Guide section) on a range of different topics under physical science, life science, earth science and engineering, the lab is a great place for kids to learn and apply their learning to experiment. This is a great way of committing things learned to memory.

 

School of Dragons is as much a place for fun as it is a place for scientific knowledge. Players can have lots of fun just flying around with their dragon to other areas like Wilderness and Icy Cove or can participate in the 3 incredible games at the School, namely, Dragon Racing, Fireball Frenzy, and Flight School. While the Dragon Racing and Fireball Frenzy are both single and multiplayer games, Flight School is a game meant to be enjoyed by a single player. Mounting on your dragon and racing, shooting targets while atop your dragon, and collecting as many flags as possible in the given time while flying are some of the fun things to do at School of Dragons.
