Isle of Cumbrae recreated in video game Minecraft
20 April 2021
As part of a project to teach youngsters about the region's past, the Isle of Cumbrae was recreated in Minecraft.
Students from Abertay University, Dundee, created Cumbraecraft that is based on the renowned Ayrshire Coast tourist destination.
The game includes eight lessons aimed at primary school students.
Garrison House, Lion Rock, and Cathedral of the Isles are some of the locations that are featured on the virtual island.
Crocodile Rock, the port and the Millport library are also explorable in the game.
It is specifically designed to be used in both classroom and home-learning settings.
The project was completed by Romain Bourdon, Fergus Coyne, and Claire Monaghan (Games students) while they were studying at Abertay's School of Design and Informatics.
Due to current travel restrictions, the trio were not able to visit the island prior to the time they began their work and had to use images as their only point of reference.
The game is part of a redevelopment program that is being implemented by North Ayrshire Council and Historic Environment Scotland.
The council's regeneration officer Kasia Smith said she was "thrilled" that the game was made available to students.
She stated: "Cumbrae has such a rich history and it is vital that our children know about their community and heritage.
"Our Millport Conservation Area Restoration Scheme has been a huge success in preserving historic elements of the island. Nomad Cumbraecraft has allowed our to reach out to younger viewers."
