Creating online games for the Country Fire Authority

Here at Edunity we can pretty much do anything thrown our way – we particularly love working on new media projects and this one we designed for the CFA was tremendously fun.

We developed four new games for the Country Fire Authority website to communicate some of the key fire safe messages to kids in a fun way. The games incorporated the cute and furry cast of Australian native animal mascots Captain Koala, Neville Numbat and Wozza Wombat as well as CFA volunteers James and Sophie.

The four games focused on the messages of

• dialling 000 in an emergency
• making a home fire escape plan
• protective clothing worn by CFA volunteers
• the importance of having working smoke alarms.

The games also give children a valuable insight into what CFA volunteers do.

Have a play yourself and tell us what you think!
