key concepts

Language

The text is really bold and stands out. The '8' could symbolise the track format because that track is popular with racing game company's but 8 also means it's the 8th sequel of Mario Kart.

Institution

The company be hide Mario Kart is Nintendo. Nintendo have sold many copies of Mario kart 7 all over the world.

Audience

The people in which this game is targeted toward in my opinion is 7-16 but it can vary because this is a family game which the whole family can enjoy.

Representation

Mario kart is represented as a fun game which the family can have fun and interact.

fruit bowl

This colouring designed by Salam Bounoua, Iqra Javed and Darnell George emphasises the feeling and sense of old fashion through the colours utilised. As you can see the picture we have used to collect the colours from isn't really a picture to represent the olden times and is also not a picture taken in the olden times. However we have impressively noticed that the colours in that picture represents the olden days and so we have used it in the fruit bowl. The colours black and white were used as the t.v's and pictures back in the day was (obviously) black and white and the rest of the colours such as brown, orange, yellow and etc. were used as it gives a real sense of old fashion!

Candy Crush Saga

      In this blog, I’m going to be writing about the new worldwide phenomenon, Candy Crush Saga.   Candy Crush Saga is a puzzle game, where you have to match the different coloured candies on a billboard full of different candy colours. The basic movement to this game is vertically or horizontally swapping to match three or more of the same coloured candies.

Each level has a specific requirement which you have to match before you can move on to the next and are slightly different hence different shaped bill boards or a timed level.  Not many players of this game are aware that the Facebook version of candy crush saga has 455 levels and the mobile app version has 410 levels.  

5 opportunities are given to complete any given level.  However, if you fail to complete the level and run out of lives you will have to wait for 30 minutes or less for one life or you could ask your Facebook friends for help. You would have to stay on the level until you complete it.  You also have an opportunity to purchase virtual items to assist you in your gaming.

Candy Crush Saga is an incredibly addictive game because you want to be able to complete all levels knowing there is a way but not always achieving it. It has surpassed Angry Birds and Farmville which has been the leading game on Facebook since 2009. This is proof from daily mail one of the leading news company.
