Link to AI Odessy Game

Bridget Miller –

For my final project I chose to create both a virtual and physical version of a board game designed by AI. I wanted the game to simulate Candyland, whilst including Trivia questions coordinated with each color on the board, and asked AI how it thought I should do this. I gave AI a set of six topics that I wanted the game to focus on, and allowed the AI to develop a set of rules, and gameplay for the user to follow. AI also included game strategy, variations, and educational value as listed below:

Game Setup:

  • Board: Similar to Candy Land, a colorful, winding path leading to the finish line, adorned with AI-related landmarks.
  • Categories: Six categories of AI questions, each represented by a distinct color:
    • Ethics (Red)
    • Policy (Yellow)
    • Workplace (Purple)
    • Education (Green)
    • Copyright (Blue)
    • Basic AI Facts (Orange)

Rules:

  • Players move along the path based on dice rolls or drawing cards with colors corresponding to the categories.
  • When a player lands on a colored square, they draw a card from the respective category’s deck and answer a question.
  • Correct answers allow the player to advance, while incorrect answers might require them to stay put or move backward.
  • Special cards or squares could offer advantages (extra turns, skip ahead, etc.) or challenges (lose a turn, switch places with another player, etc.).

Gameplay Flow:

  1. Starting Line: Players begin at the starting point.
  2. Turns: Players take turns rolling the dice or drawing cards, answering questions asthey progress.
  3. Shortcuts & Obstacles: Special squares might offer shortcuts or obstacles, creatingexcitement and strategic gameplay.
  4. Finish Line: The first player to reach the end of the path by correctly answering a finalchallenging question from each category wins.

Sample Gameplay Scenario:

  • Player rolls the dice and lands on a red square, drawing a card from “Ethics” category.
  • They’re asked a question about AI ethics..
  • Answering correctly, they move forward. Incorrect? They stay in place.
  • Another player lands on a yellow square, answering a question about AI in policy.
  • Players proceed, aiming to tackle questions from each category to reach the finish line.

Game Strategy:

Players might strategize by aiming for specific categories they feel confident in or by taking calculated risks to progress faster.

Game Variations:

You could add a competitive twist by allowing players to challenge each other with questions from their strongest categories, stealing turns or advantages upon answering correctly.

Educational Value:

Aside from being entertaining, the game educates players about AI concepts, history, ethics, and its diverse applications, making it both fun and informative!After developing a basic concept for the game, I got to work using my knowledge from the course, as well as AI, to develop 46 unique trivia questions for players to answer. I will include the answers (or possible answers, as they are quite broad questions) to the trivia questions below. Each question coordinates with a specific space and color listed on the game board.
