Forest devastation is a critical environmental issue with severe ecological consequences. The Philippines, in particular, faces significant challenges in conservation efforts, compounded by a lack of public awareness about the effects of deforestation. To address this gap, we developed “Leshy: A 3D Action-Adventure Game Using Character Switching Mechanics for Promoting Awareness on Combating Forest Devastation.” This game immerses players in a virtual environment that reflects the real-world impacts of deforestation, leveraging character-switching mechanics to enhance engagement and education. “Leshy” aligns with Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) No. 15 - Life on Land, offering a unique and interactive approach to inspire action against forest devastation. The game's effectiveness was evaluated based on Gameplay, Aesthetics, User Interface (UI), Sound Design/Audio, and Storyline, achieving an overall average score of 4.44, rated as “Excellent.” This high rating indicates the game's success in engaging players with its captivating gameplay, appealing visuals, intuitive interface, immersive sound, and compelling narrative. The accompanying website, assessed using the FURPS model (Functionality, Usability, Reliability, Performance, and Supportability), received an overall average score of 4.50, also rated as “Excellent.” This demonstrates the website's user-friendly interface, dependable reliability, and strong performance, ensuring a seamless user experience. In conclusion, “Leshy” effectively addresses the issue of forest devastation by combining educational content with an engaging gaming experience. This project highlights the potential of interactive media in raising environmental awareness and inspiring conservation efforts. Further development and promotion of similar educational games are recommended to enhance their impact on environmental conservation.
