🧩 [New Generation Reimagines City Marketing] Kaohsiung City Puzzle Game Hides 7 Cultures! New Immigrant Second Generation Transforms Hometown Memories into Reality Game Levels

Puzzle games are not just entertainment; they can also be a new medium for cross-cultural communication! The Kaohsiung New Immigrant Affairs Center recently held a "City Puzzle Co-creation Workshop," inviting 20 young people to undergo 30 hours of training, integrating exotic food memories and Kaohsiung city scenes into reality puzzle-solving. Among them were second-generation new immigrants from backgrounds including the Philippines, China, Indonesia, Vietnam, Ukraine, the United States, and Thailand, successfully transforming from cultural experiencers into "cultural curators." 🎮 Indoor City Adventure: Yancheng and the Train Station Become Game Levels Although the event day was affected by heavy rain, preventing outdoor exploration, the participants demonstrated strong creativity, "moving" classic scenes like Yancheng District, Xinle Street, Nanguo Shopping District, and Kaohsiung Train Station into the center: Scenario Level Design: Participants cleverly transformed their home country's food culture and observations of local life into clues, guiding people to solve tasks within the game. Perspective Shift: During the puzzle-solving process, participants could see the familiar port city through the eyes of the second-generation new immigrants, re-examining it from a new cross-cultural perspective. 💬 A Thai Second-Generation's Voice: "This time, it's our turn to tell the story!" Participant Xiao Yi (pseudonym) shared that she used to feel her Thai cultural background was ordinary, but through the course, she discovered that the food and life experiences familiar since childhood are unique creative materials. "Before, others introduced our culture. This time, we design the levels and lead people to experience them. It makes me more confident to tell my own story!" 🌱 Empowerment and Transformation: Making Diverse Backgrounds a Force for Social Participation You Ting-ting, director of the Southern District Center of the Mustard Seed Mission, which organized the center's affairs, pointed out that this empowerment program aims to help the second generation discover their cross-cultural advantages: From Passive to Active: The training content evolved from early self-exploration and expression to cultural curation, teamwork, and activity leadership. Creating an Inclusive City: In the future, the center will continue to provide opportunities for public participation, helping the second generation accumulate creative experience, making cross-cultural backgrounds a significant force for youth social participation, and building a more friendly and inclusive Kaohsiung. 💡 Editor's Note: When culture is no longer just book knowledge but a game level that can be experienced firsthand, the second generation injects the most vibrant and diverse colors into the city with their creativity. 🗣️ Discussion Time for rtitalk Readers: If you had the chance to design a puzzle level that combines your home country's culture or hometown cuisine, what kind of puzzle would you design for everyone to challenge?
