Go Lumi! Magic Cards

maths and logic, coding and algorithmics, board and strategy games

A multi-level game of programming a virtual robot named Lumi. The game takes place on a table using real code tiles with instructions. Students arrange the code on an interactive gameboard using dedicated game cards. After running the code, Lumi moves around the board according to the arranged sequence of instructions.

These are pleasant lessons in programming and the basics of algorithms. The logical division into 11 lessons and the included scenarios make it easier to conduct classes—scope of teaching: navigation, collecting and sorting objects, conditional fields, loops, and functions. There are 110 levels in the game for Lumi to complete!

Arrange the cards on the table and collect the lost objects, leading Lumi to the exit. Good luck!

New! Augmented reality game on the table.

Place real cards on the table and control the fate of the hero on the board.

This is a new way to play in the Motioncube application.
In addition to the ability to operate the board with an IR pen,
we give you the ability to play with real cards on the displayed board.

After pressing the "Play" button, the application reads the instructions from the cards,
and the hero moves around the game board according to your card arrangement.

Learn more about the interactive game Go Lumi! Magic Cards

The game is intended for students from the 1st grade of primary school. Due to the varying degrees of difficulty of the tasks, from simple to complex algorithmic challenges, the game can be successfully offered to students of higher grades.

The recommended way to play is teamwork at the table. The game can be played by one person, and by group of 2-4 people.

The players' task is to show the hero the right way to the exit while performing simple cleaning tasks in the corridors. Students arrange a series of instructions under the board from cardboard blocks (in real mode) or from virtual picture blocks (in virtual mode, using an IR pen).

We want to introduce students to the world of programming through play. By controlling our hero Lumi in the rooms of a heat and power plant, players gradually expand their competencies in the following areas:

  • designing algorithms that control an object,
  • searching for a solution with the fewest instructions.
  • understanding and using functions and iterative loops.
Mastering these basics will allow them to develop more efficiently and fully at later stages of education (not only in computer science).

110 game levels | Two game modes: Real and Virtual | Cardboard tiles with instructions

This is a well-thought-out course consisting of a total of 110 interactive boards to solve. It is logically divided into 11 parts, which makes it easier to learn the material and progress in the game. While playing with the tiles, students can learn and understand the use of: sequence of instructions, conditional instructions, the pick-and-drop method, the iterative loop and functions.

In addition, the Motioncube Help Center for teachers you will find five lesson plans with the app. They will help you explain new concepts and introduce students to new topics through joint play.

The application is designed for playing on a table with interactive projection powered by Motioncube.

In the game, you operate the menu using an IR pen. You can choose one of two game modes: real or virtual.

In virtual mode, you will still use the IR pen to place blocks on the board. In real mode, use dedicated cardboard blocks (purchased separately) or print them on stiff paper from the attached file.

Active support for student development

Working with the Go Lumi! Magic Cards game, you can shape:

  • visual perception;
  • spatial orientation;
  • eye-hand coordination;
  • ability to focus attention;
  • the ability to classify items;
  • the ability to recognize patterns and arrangements;
  • the ability to create sequences of commands to control an object;
  • ability to work in a group;
  • analytical, cause-and-effect thinking;
  • understanding concepts derived from computer science: instruction, algorithm, sequence, loop, actions - pick and drop, function;
  • computational thinking and problem-solving using methods derived from computer science.

Augmented Reality Game

Code cards

Code cards

53 printed cards, from which you arrange the code on the table directly on the game board. It is a combination of traditional card game, coding and modern AR technology.

Once the cards are placed, the app reads the sequence using the device's camera, and the virtual hero Lumi comes to life on the board, making moves according to planned instructions.

Why choose the game "Go Lumi! Magic Cards"?

  • It is an educational game: it teaches the basics of coding, computational thinking, and introduces students to interesting programming concepts such as loops and functions.
  • You code and play: you place cards on the table and press the "Play" button, you progress through the game levels, while receiving increasingly difficult challenges to code.
  • Student and teacher friendly: simple and intuitive operation, clear elements in the game and on the cards, comfortable work at the table.
  • Tutorial and built-in help: the game guides you through each level, explaining new elements that appear at each stage of the game.
  • Additional teaching aids: use the developed lesson plans introducing new algorithmic issues, thanks to which students will become familiar with new concepts and coding techniques in a fun way.
  • Engaging gameplay: the form of the game and the acquisition of new, practical skills motivates students to take on further challenges and solve increasingly difficult game boards.
