Game-based learning is about adopting certain gaming principles and applying those principles to real life settings, so as to engage users. In this approach, learning goals and users' contribution were involved, in order to engage the users with learning materials. One of the effective methods to design a game-based learning is through users' contributions. However, the current studies in game-based learning are lacking in applying users' contributions, especially, when it comes to users with special needs to address the stimuli that can engage the user in the multi cue responding game. Another important problem is that usually user's contribution methods are based on the unbalanced design activities. When it comes to learning approach for children with ASD there is a need to extend one of the available methods based on their daily routine activities. The aim of this research is to devise a means to design a game-based learning, by extending the Bluebell method in Participatory Design (PD) approach to develop an application game for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). As the first step of problem identification, two preliminary studies were conducted to identify the factors that affect the engagement rate in children with ASD and get a better understanding of the main challenges with participants.
