PowerPoint Game Design
Interactive Game Teaches Process for International Work
The Challenge
Create an interactive quiz game that can be controlled from a tablet and projected on-screen for a large audience.
The Solution
Graphic Ardt & Design, Inc. used PowerPoint animations to build an engaging Q&A game from HR's educational materials.
Kimberly-Clark regularly sends employees to work overseas. Those employees need to follow specific procedures outlined by HR’s Global Mobility office.

Animations Build in Navigation Control
International employment can be a challenge, with a number of detailed steps to complete by those interested. Understanding the process can be a dry task… unless you make it a game, more engaging to participate in and easier to present by the Global Mobility division of HR.
In the Global Mobility Game, on-screen zones to swipe or tap allowed the presenter to move the game forward, while animations added to the entertainment value of the game. A game piece measured progress, moving from one numbered location to the next on the “game board”; a wrong answer sent the players back to discuss the topic more; and game completion was celebrated with a quick fireworks display. This game, created entirely in PowerPoint, helped candidates learn pivotal parts of international relocation in an entertaining way.
