Abstract

Paytime is a campaign aimed to nurture the next generation of heritage advocates through the provision of additional avenues for children to learn about Singapore’s heritage. Kids aged 7 to 12 were the campaign’s primary target audience, with their parents making up the secondary target audience. One highlight of this campaign was that it launched Singapore’s first heritage-themed escape rooms at Yangzheng Primary School as part of a special collaboration with Think Your Way Out (TYWO), a local reality escape game room company. This escape room concept is a game where participants who are confined in a room have to solve a series of clues and puzzles so as to break out of the room within an hour. Such an immersive game enabled children to learn about Singapore’s heritage in a non-intrusive manner.
