TEACHING TIPS. The Project OTHI. An Overview of OTHI OTHI is a 2-dimensional online treasure hunt game developed with Java. OTHI provides a playground for a treasure hunt. Players become motivated and experience IBL by playing the game. Basically, a player tries to find a hidden treasure, denoted in a quest with given clues, exploring a game world and overcoming challenges. If the player acquires enough experience points, (s)he can level up, become stronger and faster, and is allowed to equip with higher level weapons and armors. Completing the quests, overcoming challenges, and finding treasures give the player rewards and experience points. Some equipment, tools, and aids are required, in order to find the treasures and defeat monsters which is considered to be one of obstacles in the treasure hunt model. The hidden treasure may be an appropriate answer to the question presented ina quest. A teaching support subsystem of OTHI enables instructors to design their courses as IBL.
