Through an adventure game called: Lucky Hero’s Legacy, we aim to engage teenagers in embracing and getting to know their cultural her itage. The game was designed to provide freedom for teenagers to explore the 3D scenarios of Madeira Island, thus dynamically and engagingly discovering its legends, folktales, and heritage. In this paper, we will describe the entire process, techniques used in the process of recreating the heritage in the digital world, as well as in the creation of cinematics for the transmission of educational content. Furthermore, the paper will describe a preliminary evaluation with 15 teenagers showing the game’s potential in engaging the target audience with cultural heritage.
