Serious games have the potential to increase motivation among users in the aspect of safety training. Additionally, serious games can also positively impact training outcomes when the knowledge and skills acquired during a serious game training are transferred to a real-world application. The development of a serious game is based on the game elements and theories determined according to the goals or objectives of the game being developed. There are existing serious games that have been used for training but less usage of scenarios and feedback element render the game less effective for training purposes. Besides that, existing serious games for training purposes fail in delivering domain content to achieve the game objectives since they are more focused on entertainment. This is because the games do not involve experts in providing game domain content. The objective of this paper is to design a serious game model for flood safety training. Preliminary study and literature review are used in this study as the research method. The result of this study is a model of a serious game for flood safety training. In conclusion, this study focuses on the design of a serious game model for flood safety training that includes the elements of serious game identified and adapted to psychology readiness based on the flood training module by Malaysian Defense Force (APM). This makes the serious game more attractive and can give intrinsic motivation to players. For future studies, every single element serious game and theory of psychology readiness in the model developed in this study will be validated with the expert game and expert psychology.

The geographical location of Makassar, which is included in the lowlands and the increasingly uncertain climate change, makes this area included in the flood map in Indonesia. Almost every year, the city of Makassar is haunted by the potential for flooding in several vulnerable areas such as the sub-districts of Manggala, Wajo and Bontoala and the Antang National Housing, every disaster in the city of Makassar is handled by the Regional Office. Disaster Management Agency. So far, flood disaster preparedness is still not responsive to a disaster, most of them sit around waiting for help, and the community lacks understanding of what to do when a flood disaster hits them. This study aims to design a system that provides education to the public about flood disaster management using virtual reality technology. This research method uses Virtual Reality technology based on educational games. The result of this research is the existence of a flood control simulation system that can help the people of Makassar understand what to do in the event of a flood and with virtual reality-based, educational game technology providing a more attractive appearance. So that people are happy and happy to use educational games. Based on black-box testing, valid results were obtained for all functional tests on the flood prevention educational game simulation system, especially in Makassar. Then based on the results of a questionnaire to determine the system's benefits obtained from fifty respondents consisting of children, adolescents and adults, the outcomes received 91.3% stated very useful, 5.2% useful, 3.5% quite helpful and 0% useless.

“…In addition, users can also get better explanation and build problem-solving skills by using animations, graphics and interactive environment [5]. Serious games can provide players with enjoyable experience in safe situation at reasonable cost in which those experience can be useful to be applied in real life situation [6].…”

Obesity among children is increasing alarmingly. Therefore it is crucial to instill the awareness about the danger of being obese to the children. To instill the awareness is a challenge. A good approach is required for the message to be accepted and conceptualized by the children. Serious game has been an important mechanism to assist the achievement of many serious purposes other than for entertainment and enjoyment. This paper proposes the implementation of content-based recommendation technique in serious game for obesity awareness among children. Several recommendation techniques for awareness had been studied and the content-based recommendation technique is found to be suitable to be implemented in games. The game was developed according to game development approach and fulfilled the game characteristics. For this preliminary study, 10 children participated in the experiment to determine the effectiveness of the game. The participants were given a pre-and post test to answer before and after playing the game. The result of the test shows that participants achieved the obesity awareness after playing the game. The content-based recommendation technique is applicable to be adopted in serious games to instill awareness in the players.
