The Open University wanted to create a fun interactive to get people to explore how great social thinkers are linked together. The project was part of their aims to engage with a wider audience on the web, encourage learning and complement the BBC series Great Thinkers: In Their Own Words.
WHAT WE DID
We created a fun, informative game, with strong audience appeal, designed to challenge users into thinking about the influence and effects key thinkers of our time have had on one another.

connections
We built an interactive that was full of fascinating facts and highlighted the intriguing connections between some of the greatest thinkers in history. The game also linked in with the Open University's OpenLearn Platform.


The challenge
Players were challenged with linking great thinkers and how their ideas impacted on each other; who influenced who, who worked together and who shared similar opinions. Different levels and themes challenged players who could save their progress, encouraging repeat play.
