In response to the story context of the project, I came up with the idea of Alzheimer’s disease and conducted research and studies on it. Using these studies as inspiration, I came up with some ideas for refining the context of the project.
Including:
- Thoughts about the shape of the memory pieces and what they would look like when put together
- An extension of the game play based on Alzheimer’s
- The game narrative context as well as the story line, I have proposed two different contexts and ending narrative designs that I hope to discuss later.
For more details please refer to my brain map file.

Using a real-life illness such as Alzheimer’s can be very helpful in structuring your own ideas, but do remember to be as considerate as you can be in how you describe the illness / present the experience. You will not be able to tell who has been affected by this illness amongst the people who will form your audience, so you need to retain a sympathetic attitude the whole way through. Have you considered including the details of supportive organisations e.g. https://www.alzheimers.org.uk/ within the presentation?
