Abstract :
Although schools and government agencies actively provide career guidance service in Taiwan, most college graduates are still troubled about their career choices.

The advantage of digital games is to improve people´s motivation and interest for career direction seeking, and guiding them to explore career that suit them. This paper aims to assess the feasibility of a career game, and propose possible approaches for making game-based career guidance system.
