| Concepts of Einstein's Theory of Relativity are usually considered complicated enough that in the context of public science education they are often stated but seldom explained. In our game-like interactive animated story we explain the effect of Time Dilation in the Special Theory of Relativity by pushing to the limit a real life question: can Relativity help two students in love who want the same but in a different amount of time? The user is guided to the answer with the help of a familiar looking character. This interactive story can be used in variety of educational environments. |
