Gender question
When designing a game, precise adjustment concerning the audience is essential. Hence, it is important to think about the exact target group, before making serious decisions pertaining to several design aspects. Here, gender specification or gender neutrality are two leading points that need to be thought about.Reasons "tba" appeals its audience
"tba" is a game designed for children aged 8 to 10. Due to that, the overall-design is adjusted to that - simple, flat and modern, but as well lovely and appropriate for children. Especially the visual appearance of the game is well adapted for "youngsters": Fresh and bright colors, easily readable typography and no excessive and overloaded screens. The aim is to create an harmonizing interaction design which does not ask too much of the player.
Gender specification
Whether the player is male of female, he or she can choose between a male or female "avatar" which represents the player during the whole game. By reason of the fact that the target audience is aged from 8 to 10, these avatars are not created in a sexist way. Thus, the differentiation between the male and female avatar is based on the hairstyle.
Gender neutrality
In terms of game genres, "tba", which is a mix of role-play and puzzle, is gender neutral.
