THE STORY

You belong to a tribe of people who live on a planet very far away from Earth. The planet V34B is divided into two lands: one where temperatures are always hot and the other, where they are always cold. You are part of the people who live on the hot side of the planet.

THE ADVENTURE

Your adventurous spirit has made a call: you need to find out what is going on on the other side of your Planet. Is there more food? Are any other tribes out there? Will you find better shelter? Would you migrate with your tribe there if it’s necessary? The Chiefs of the tribe want to know the answers, let’s find out!"

THE CHALLENGE

The journey to the cold lands is a dangerous journey, and you are not well equipped. In order to survive, you will need to design an adequate outfit from scratch. The challenge consists of designing a prototype for shoes to walk on snow, ice, and freezing temperatures. Let your creativity move your soul!

You will then have to present the prototype to the Chiefs, who will evaluate and choose the best shoes for all the tribe to use.
Let the challenge begin!
