Apil Karki, a Nepali developer, has launched three mobile games designed to cultivate a culture of innovation and research across Nepal. Available on the App Store, these games aim to make creative thinking accessible to a broad audience, including students, teachers, professionals, and aspiring entrepreneurs.
The three titles, "100 Peaks of Innovation," "1 Minute: Innovation Eye," and "Anomaly: Research in Play", are built on the principle that innovation can emerge from everyday life. Karki emphasizes that invention often starts with identifying problems and developing practical solutions, driven by curiosity and a willingness to think differently. This approach is particularly relevant as Nepal expands its digital and technology sectors, with growing interest in artificial intelligence and advanced connectivity.
"100 Peaks of Innovation" simulates an innovation reality show, guiding players through idea creation, from problem identification to pitching, with AI feedback. "1 Minute: Innovation Eye" encourages users to spend a minute daily observing their surroundings for potential improvements, strengthening observation skills. The third game, "Anomaly: Research in Play," focuses on developing research capabilities.
Many of the worldโs most important inventions came from people who identified problems in their daily lives and found practical solutions. Innovation begins with curiosity, observation and a willingness to think differently.
