Taiwan is renowned for its rich cultural heritage and history, and the government has made concerted efforts to preserve these invaluable assets. However, the focus has predominantly been on tangible cultural heritage, leaving intangible cultural heritage, which encompasses knowledge and beliefs, relatively unaddressed. To address this challenge and aid in the preservation of Taiwanese cultural heritage, various technologies have been employed, with games emerging as the most popular medium.

This study aims to explore the advantages of utilizing games as a means to foster understanding of Taiwanese culture. Drawing on insights from a literature review and existing serious games related to the topic, we developed a prototype. Subsequently, we conducted expert interviews with professionals from the game industry and cultural creativity sector, enabling us to obtain valuable perspectives from diverse angles.

The feedback gathered from these expert interviews indicates a favorable reception of the idea of using games to educate about Taiwanese cultural heritage. Moreover, many of the suggestions provided have proven instrumental in enhancing and refining the prototype game. Ultimately, we have distilled a set of valuable guidelines for future designers aspiring to develop serious games centered around Taiwanese culture.
