Abstract: The Spanish Patent Office identified the need to teach high school students about IP rights. A game to be played on the computer was developed as a classroom tool along with materials for teachers and students. The game replicates the steps required to register an IP right. It was launched to the press in 2007 and by May 2008 it had been downloaded almost 100,000 times.
