Abstract/Summary

Learning is not confined to the classrooms anymore, now there are other means in which people learn. Technology has provided a way where different kinds of information can be accessed by anyone, anytime and anywhere. Different mediums brought about by technology have become so popular especially with the younger generations. This paper aims to use this growing interests for new mediums as a stepping stone to expose and bring forward our Philippine Epics. By creating a game based on one of our Philippine Epics, this paper would like to expose Filipino gamers to our own local stories and adventures. The creation of the game would include creating a narrative and script based on the epic of Raja Indaraptra following the structure of the hero's journey by Joseph Campbell.
