Paper folding-and-punching tests are used to measure spatial abilities in humans. This paper
presents a qualitative model for paper folding (QPF) and a computer game (Paper Folding
Game) developed to apply and show the reasoning capabilities of the QPF model. This
interactive game presents paper-folding activities intended to help users train and understand
how to fold a paper to get a specific shape. Then, it presents paper-folding-and-punching
tests to the players. The Paper Folding Game can automatically generate paper-folding-andpunching questions with varying degrees of difficulty depending on the number of folds
and holes made, thus producing additional levels for training. The reasoning mechanisms
in the QPF model are used by the Paper Folding Game to infer the right answer to each
paper-folding-and-punching question. This reasoning capability allows the game to provide
feedback to the players when they are wrong and also to create other plausible answers
automatically, so that random question-answers are shown to the players in the mastermode. The Paper Folding Game has been implemented using Unity engine and it is available
to download from GooglePlay and AppleStore for everyone to train their spatial reasoning
skills. [-]
