Mission HydroSci is a game-based 3D virtual environment for enacting transformational role-playing for middle school science students. Student-players will be engaged in a narrative about needing to investigate water resources and use scientific argumentation to complete missions critical to the survival and accomplishments of the members of their scientific enterprise. Our poster presents our progress in years 1 and 2 of a funded project to integrate pedagogical and gameplay objectives, and build mechanisms for purposeful player engagement and activity.
