Ico

Warriors lock him away in an abandoned fortress. During his explorations of the fortress, Ico encounters Yorda, the daughter of the castle's Queen. The Queen plans to use Yorda's body to extend her own lifespan. Learning this, Ico seeks to escape the castle with Yorda, keeping her safe from the shadow-like creatures that attempt to draw her back. Throughout the game, the player controls Ico as he explores the castle, solves puzzles and assists Yorda across obstacles. Gameplay[edit] Ico (right) calls out to Yorda (left) while she waits on the ruined castle. Escaping the castle is made difficult by shadow creatures sent by the Queen. Plot[edit] Ico (イコ, pronounced "Ee-ko"?) Ico awakens below the castle and makes his way back to the upper levels, finding a magic sword that dispels the shadow creatures. Development[edit] The cover used for the North American release of Ico. Soundtrack[edit] Phylo.

François Taddei’s course now open for Learnit Lab « Learnit Lab

It’s going to be a great venue for collaboration between scientists, engineers and eduhackers. Some words on the course: First course will be tomorrow at 18:00, presenting both courses, Open science and scientific discovery games. Scientific discovery games Duration: 10x 2h, on Thursdays from 18:00 to 20:00 at the CRI (room 2006), Next course: December 1st. The success of gamers in games such as Fold-it are each year more impressive. Last year in Nature they announced that players can make better predictions than the best software. In this course we’ll propose the study of such games and we’ll work on how to design new scientific discovery games and will contribute to the creation of an international community of students and researchers that create such games. Open science: Duration: 10x 2h, on Thursdays from 18:00 to 20:00 at the CRI (room 2006), Next course: November 24th.
