The application flow

Before starting the application

Before starting the application, the following conditions must be met:

  • Enough free space so Zora can go to her sitting position

The application

Depending of the settings when starting the application (i.e. the setting Skip intro isn’t checked), Zora will first introduce herself and explain what the application does.

Depending on if the wait for sensor setting is enabled or not, Zora will either ask you to touch her left foot before continuing to the next round or start the next round automatically. However, if it’s the first game Zora will automatically start the game after the user answered "Yes" when asked if he/she is ready even when the wait for sensor setting is enabled.

Zora will then play her animation and depending on whether or not the zora talks first setting is enabled do one of the following:

  • If enabled: Zora will say her answer first and then ask the user to give his/her answer.

  • If disabled: Zora will ask the user for his/her answer first and then say what her own answer is.

Zora will then say who won the round, say the current score and if someone has exceeded the minimum amount of wins needed to win the game she will announce the winner of the game as well.

At the end of the game Zora will write a report of the game which can be downloaded from the Control (see the settings Download/Delete report) and ask the user if he/she wants to play again.

Please be aware that when you decide to play a new game, the report of the previous game will be overwritten. You need to download the report first if you want to keep the results.
