Comprehension Game can be tried out without creating an account, but by registering for free, you unlock the possibility to create and play user-created content. Logging in also gives you access to your game progress on any device you use. Any progress accumulated when playing without logging in won’t transfer to a registered account.
Sub-users
Sub-users are designed to enable multiple users, such as students, to use a single shared device without creating their own accounts. As a registered user, you may create sub-users for your account. The sub-users are displayed in a list in the Comprehension Game after logging in. Each sub-user tracks their progress independently, like a regular user, but sub-users can only be accessed by logging in first with the parent user. Sub-users can be managed at: https://api.comprehensiongame.com/api/child-users/
First Steps
Once you reach the main menu of the game by logging in and choosing your user, or by deciding to play without logging in, you are prompted to choose whether you want to play the gamified or basic variant of the Comprehension Game. The gamified variant includes additional activities in addition to the basic true and false claim recognition. If you are unsure, choose the gamified variant to see all that the Comprehension Game has to offer. The game mode can be switched later on via the game’s settings.
Learning Packages
Choose “Learning Packages” in the main menu to see a list of available playable content. Choose a learning package in the list to see more details about it. You may start playing a chosen learning package by pressing the “Play” button.
Search
You may search for learning packages by entering your search term in the search bar at the top.
Filter
You may filter learning packages via the filter view or by choosing one or more tags at the top of the list.
Sort
You may set the ordering of the learning package list by choosing a different sorting method. By default, all learning packages that match your language are shown first in alphabetic order, after that, all English learning packages in alphabetic order, and at the end, the rest of the learning packages in alphabetic order.
Select the language of the learning package
If a learning package has multiple translations, you may choose the language you want to use in that package’s details view.
Playing a learning package
The goal in a learning package is to recognise which claims are true and which are false. Claims may provide an explanation, which goes into detail on why the claim is true or false, after they have been answered. A learning package has its claims spread across one or more sections. The sections are played in a sequential order in such a way that the truthiness of all the claims in the preceding section has to be recognised correctly before being able to move on to the next section. Once all the sections have been passed, the learning package is considered to be completed.
Gamified mode
In gamified mode, the player additionally has to dodge obstacles and collect coins in between answering claims.
Customisation (Gamified mode only)
In gamified mode, it is possible to customise the car that is used to dodge the obstacles and collect coins in between answering claims. The car model, parts, and colors can be adjusted to suit one’s preferences. The coins collected while playing can be spent to unlock more car models and parts.
Settings
You may access the Comprehension Game’s settings via the cog icon in the main menu. In the settings, you may change the app’s language, scale font size, and adjust volume, among other things.
