Females in the animal world are choosy and males have to work hard to impress them.

In this augmented reality game, students take on the role of a male bird presenting females with different objects of different colours. To win, the students must figure what it is the female likes and find all the objects they need. The first to find all four objects wins!

The game teaches concepts surrounding female preference, the evolution of mating strategies, and the cultural transmission of learning.

This game is designed to be played with an entire class and replaces a sexual selection practical or tutorial at the university level. Individuals compete in groups of 2-5 and works best with at least 6 groups.

The practical takes about 5-10 minutes of initial discussion 25-35 minutes of class game play, and 20-30 minutes of debriefing.
