| Chapter 3: Matching Game
Clicking and dragging is a standard computer user interface action. You see it done in the operating system as users click and drag file icons around. This can be made into a game by placing draggable objects on one side of the screen, and destination objects on the other side. The goal is to drag the items to their correct counterpart. This type of game is usually used for education or computer-based training. However, it can also be a useful trivia game with the right content. | |
