4Describe how the player will learn more about civics when playing this game in no less than 150 words.
When playing this game the player will learn about civics by learning what an immigrant goes through to be a United States citizen. The first thing an immigrant goes through is getting to the United States. Once you are here in the United States you have to take the citizens test. At the end of our game we have a maze to insinuate the struggle for immigrants to get to the United States. The questions are the same questions you would find on a Citizen test but not as many. If we had ever question that is on the test no one would play the game. People hate games that make you read. People like games where you are involved that is why we put the maze at the end of the game. The questions will help you learn some thing about the United States that you didn’t know.

6Does your game teach about an ideal of government, a function of government, or about citizenship? Please explain Citizenship, To be a citizen.

  3. Numbers should have a "." after them and then a space before you start typing.
    # 3 "It" should have a lower case i, be "a" should be an.
    # 4 "ever" should be every

    You might want to start your game with a character trying to enter the United State with a Passport, having those with proper documentation pass through and those with none turned back at the customs and then a way to fix their documentation and try again.
