What to do if there's a fire in 120 seconds?

 
Computer Science

Project description

Like most people, you have probably never experienced a fire. As a result, many people are unaware of the correct behaviour to adopt in the event of a fire. With the right behaviour, you can drastically reduce the risk to yourself, your own family or your fellow human beings.

You need to know this: It is not only the fire that is dangerous, but above all the toxic smoke from the fire. Just a few breaths are enough for you to lose consciousness and die of smoke inhalation.

What to do if there's a fire?
Knowing the correct behaviour in the event of a fire can be vital.

So what happens if the smoke alarm goes off because there is a fire in your own home? In order to be prepared for this life-threatening event, you should make a plan in advance, ideally together with the whole family.

After all, you usually only have 120 seconds to act correctly in the event of a fire. And this is exactly where the 120 seconds game, which was developed in close cooperation with the Augsburg Fire Brigade Adventure World, comes into play. The aim of the game is to playfully demonstrate how to behave in the event of a fire. Various scenarios are available for this purpose, depending on the player's own life situation. In this way, the correct behaviour in the event of a fire can be trained directly on the basis of one's own living circumstances, as every living situation and every fire location must be considered differently. One of four possible scenarios was realised as part of the project.

If we have convinced you to protect yourself, your family and friends, then take 120 seconds of your time.
