High Resolution Image Download MS PowerPoint Slide This report provides information about a free-of-charge, trilingual (Portuguese, Spanish, and English) game-based application that engages high school and undergraduate students in reviewing the structural theory of organic compounds in a challenging way. In Time Bomb Game, students must disarm a time bomb on their own by correctly answering random questions from a database with 621 questions. Students and professors have tested and evaluated the app, and the results revealed that the game design, content, playability, and usefulness are helpful as a complementary didactic tool to provide students with the required theoretical knowledge.
