Collaborative Colouring

Learning objective

When playing Collaborative Colouring, the players need to work together when colouring different images and patterns. Furthermore, the game will also challenge the players’ motor skills.

Game objective

The objective of Collaborative Colouring is to, in collaboration, colour all the different areas of an image to make it as beautiful as possible.

Before the colouring can begin, the players must first decide if they want to colour a picture, a mandala or a pattern. Secondly, they will have to scroll through all the different images within the chosen category and pick one of them. They scroll through the selection by using the arrows on each side of the screen. Once the players have agreed on an image, they simply need to press the play button at the bottom of the screen, and they will then be able to start colouring. To colour in an area, the players must simply drag and drop the selected colour onto the area that they want to colour in. At any time, they can regret their decision by dragging another colour to the same area and this new colour will replace the old.

Zoom

If the players want to colour a very small area, they can use the zoom function by pressing the icon with the magnifying glass (enabling the zoom function turns the zoom icon green) and then pinching two or more fingers together or apart to zoom in or out. When the players have zoomed in on the area that they wish to colour in, they simply need to press the, now green, zoom icon a second time (disabling the zoom function turns the icon white again) and the selection of colours will become available. When the players want to return to the normal showing of the image, they simply need to press the resize icon just next to the zoom icon.

Upload and save

If the players want to save the result of their efforts, they simply need to press the camera icon in the bottom left corner. This leads the players to a new screen where they should press the upload button. The game will then provide the players with a QR code to scan and save the image.
