Idea

Vexillology is the scientific study of the history, symbolism and usage of flags or, by extension, any interest in flags in general. A game is structured form of play, usually undertaken for enjoyment and sometimes used as an educational tool. This app aims to teach fun facts about flags using gamification methodology.

Target Audience

A person who studies flags is a vexillologist; vexillography is the art of designing flags; one who does so is a vexillographer; an admirer of flags is a vexillophile. My aim is to engage audience in a fun learning experience and eventually turning them into vexillophile. I am trying to target a broader age group from school kids to senior citizens.
