Overview:

The client of this application is DARPA. They have asked TopCoder to build a modern web-portal for education in Science, Technology, Engineering, Math (STEM) and especially focused on Computer Science (CS) education. The CS-STEM web-site will be dedicated to middle and high school students in USA and allow them to learn a lot of interesting topics in a user-friendly environment, which at the same time is productive and professional. Users will earn achievements, awards and prizes on the web-site.

We assume CS-STEM portal will be like a new entire TC website, but specially dedicated to attracting and holding the interest of middle-high students (ages of 13...18) in computer science related topics.

You can see the current website here: http://nonamesite.com

This contest will improve a single new activity - the Treasure Hunter game. The conceptualization, including game rules, is provided in a document, and a working prototype is also given. The goal of this assembly will be to further work on the game, implementing a set of required changes and fleshing out the levels.
