摘要
This article presents a Virtual Reality Serious Game that allows the user to increase the knowledge about the city of Valladolid in Spain. With this goal, the Main Square and some of the historic buildings in the downtown have been virtually recreated. We have taken advantage of the characteristic tiled floor of the town hall square to represent a game board. Different tiled floors are squares which hide questions behind. The user plays using a Natural User Interface based on Microsoft (R) Kinect. (c) 2013 The Authors. Published by Elsevier B.V.
