The paper presents the key challenges that we faced in the creation of the serious educational game “The Thracians”. We had to choose the most appropriate architectural environment and methodology to apply in all stages. The selection of historical facts, archaeological and artistic artefacts for the Thracian civilization was based on Thracians lifestyle, beliefs and traditions that will provoke students interests and wish to play the game.References
