Lids - They Gave Us Game Graphic
Overview:
Lids launched TheyGaveUsGame.com as part of its Black History Month campaign to honor the legacy of Black leagues and their impact on sports history. I was brought on board to design and develop three mini-games for the site. These games aimed to educate users about the contributions of Black athletes and leagues while providing an interactive and engaging experience.
Key Features:
Three Educational Mini-Games: Designed and developed games to immerse users in the history of Black leagues, each featuring unique mechanics and trivia elements to educate and entertain.
Seamless Website Integration: Ensured the games integrated smoothly with the existing website, maintaining consistent branding and user experience.
Responsive and Accessible Design: Optimized for mobile, tablet, and desktop devices to reach a diverse audience.
Interactive Storytelling: Combined gameplay with educational content to engage users and promote learning about Black sports history.
