Teaching children through games is one of the most durable methods of education. It is known that interactive games are more preferred today. One of the reasons why children are focused on online games is that the visual elements in the content are successfully designed. Interaction Design (IxD) is an interactive product and service design in which a designer’s focus goes beyond the item in the development phase and involves the way users interact with it. Therefore, the needs, limitations and contexts of the users, etc. Its closely review gives designers the power to customize in such a way that their output meets the exact requirements (Interaction Design, 2020). The mobile game called "Dupi and Dibi" is designed to give children environmental awareness. The main purpose of the research is to measure how much the game awakened environmental awareness on children. A research on this game has been done and the results have been analyzed. Visual items and content are prepared in accordance with the purpose of the game. The game’s production stages are prepared taking into account user experience and interface design theories and the suitability to the target audience has been addressed. The game has been studied in the context of interactive media design, environment and child relationship and child development. After the literature scan, the survey was applied to 200 children aged 4-12 and the results were analyzed.
